Patient Story – Mike’s Milestone

Mike, 64, turned a heart scare into a cycling win. “I was stuck on the couch,” he says—post-rehab, he’s biking 10 miles. It started with 15-minute rides, then resistance—leg presses, bands—twice weekly. Nine months in, he’s pedaling hills and beaming. “I’m unstoppable now!” His stamina’s up, BP’s down, and he’s back to fishing with pals. Studies say rehab boosts survival 25%. Mike’s trick? “Set a milestone—mine was a trail.” Yours could be a ride, a lift—hit it, your heart’s a hero!
