To Heal a Heart, Train Harder - Wall Street Journal Article

I read an interesting Article in the Wall Street Journal by Katherine Hobson titled "To Heal a Heart, Train Harder" that explored the use of Cycle Training to heal the heart. Evidence is growing that Cycle Training, exercises performed to increase and lower heart rates, can be good for someone who is recovering from heart surgery.  Hobson discusses how Cycle Training is effective for Athletes and is widely used in training and then provides some statistics around the benefits for recovering heart patients. Of course, Cycle Training for heart patients needs to be approved by a Physician and the evidence is still being gathered, but since I am a strong supporter of Cycle Trianing, I found the article to be supportive of the approach that I and many other Fitness Trainers employ with our clients.
