Blogging Ideas
Never run out of blogging ideas again - just learn from FitOldDog!
The author and his youngest grandson, Nolan, looking out over Mirror Lake, Lake Placid, after the 2011 Ironman race, where FitOldDog was the first in the world to complete an Ironman with an abdominal aortic aneurysm stent graft - click figure to proceed to FitOldDog’s Video Store.
Having created about 600 blog posts on safe exercise for better health, Ironman training, abdominal aortic aneurysms, and the like, I decided to convert the first 500 or so posts into a ‘blog to book’ pdf.
This document contains hundreds of related links, and the complete history of this blog since it’s creation. It is also full of blogging ideas.
You can download the file, of almost 1000 pages, for $4.95 from this link, if so desired.
Cheers,

I finally downloaded your “blog-to book”, and will enjoy perusing it again. I do recall you posting some early information on your initial training and experiences with high blood pressure (and the famous red wine experiments), that I couldn’t find. I am now experiencing my own interesting physiological responses to starting back at exercise, such as high pulse with a very low level of exercise, where I am not even breathing hard. I am hoping these effects will be transitory.
Hi Pauline, try to find data on exercise-induced tachycardia post-open aortic surgery. I’ll have a look too. Makes sense that your system will take time to adjust as the new pressure waves throughout the aorta will confuse the regulatory systems, which set blood pressure, heart rate, and stroke volume, to some degree at least. Furthermore, the surgery was a major stressor, and it will take time for your body to both recover and adjust to the new mechanics of your modified aorta - it was used to the aneurysm! Just go slow, RECORD DATA AT LEAST DAILY - morning resting heart rate, blood pressure, heart rate in response to exercise (define it), how you feel, and so forth, and make a spreadsheet. You’ll be surprised as a pattern emerges from the data, which will allow you to gauge progress and decision making as you go along. In fact, I think I wrote this in a post somewhere - goes to look - yep, sure did http://goo.gl/Y1GPT Hang in there, and enjoy every day. Glad you are OK! -kevin
