Anyone using this program to assess how they are doing? stable/deteriorating.

I find it quite easy but I do not do the raising arms above head parts- but do all the rest. With such a lack of feedback from my specialist I have to do a home based self-check out; also do the three flights of stairs routine- any other ideas?

After the temporary closure of my Heartsmart programme I investigated online programmes, Found the Heart Healthy Mile (not actually a mile, more like kilometre and a bit) - short 15 minute burst of cardiovascular exercise.

Feeling fitter and considerably happier than I would otherwise have been,

Do you have a link to the full itinerary of the Mile?

The AHF video is with Leslie Sansome . I think it is quite an old one. She has a selection of more recent one of various lengths on utube some of which don't involve waving arms above head.
