When you get your poll working, I suggest adding one more option: ā€œI work out on meds despite great difficulty.ā€ That would be what Iā€™d choose.

I workout on low level meds and I do it within the limits of my heart condition with my cardiologistā€™s approval.

I have CHF supposedly, But I would have to disagree with that diagnosis because I donā€™t have chest pain very often and if I do its anxiety related that I know of, but I can exercise with CHF if I donā€™t overdo it I had chest pains once at the gym when I tried to do too much too soon.

I rarely workout. Just the walking I do to shops or for other errands. Oh and going to my parents place which is rare too.

My resting heart rate used to be 60ā€¦now itā€™s 120bpm. Iā€™m scared to lift. I donā€™t want to damage my heart.

Sometimes 130bpm resting. Not good. Lifting was my life.

idk if itā€™ll help, but if you smoke cigarettes, it could be an easy fix to reverse it. When i quit last year, after a month my resting heart rate went straight back down to the 60s. I wasnā€™t even exercising, just walking almost daily

I go for walks. I am not able to do anything intense due to a bulging disc in my back. I also worry about my heart leak too doing intense workouts.
