Heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently coexist, sharing significant overlap in prevalence and pathophysiological mechanisms. Iron deficiency is also prevalent in both patients with HF and patients with CKD and is associated with poorer exercise capacity and a higher mortality rate.

PAD is a serious, progressive cardiovascular disease primarily caused by a buildup of fatty plaque in the blood vessels, or atherosclerosis. This plaque narrows the blood vessels and reduces blood flow to the legs and feet, which may significantly impair physical function, walking performance and quality of life.

On Monday, I posted a video summary of the recently released Scientific Statement by the American Heart Association (AHA) on resistance exercise training for cardiovascular health. Everyone knows that resistance exercise is important for building and maintaining muscle mass. We lift weights to build and maintain muscle.
