Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

HIGH-INTENSITY INTERVAL TRAINING IN POST-STROKE REHABILITATION: IMPLICATIONS FOR HEALTH, WELL-BEING, AND FUNCTIONAL RECOVERY

 

Your competent? doctor WILL 100% GUARANTEE that HIT will not cause a stroke? By verifying that your aneurysms will not blow out? Not just pooh poohing your question? I will never be doing any high intensity training.

Do you really want to do high intensity training?

Because Andrew Marr blames high-intensity training for his stroke. 

Can too much exercise cause a stroke?

Abstract

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has emerged as a promising, time-efficient intervention in post-stroke rehabilitation, addressing the persistent impairments in mobility, cardiovascular fitness, and overall functional capacity commonly seen in stroke survivors. Research from randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews indicates that HIIT is generally safe and feasible for selected individuals post stroke, yielding significant improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness—especially peak oxygen uptake and ventilatory threshold—as well as enhanced gait speed, walking endurance, balance, and functional ambulation. Compared to traditional moderate-intensity continuous training, HIIT may offer superior physiological benefits within shorter durations. Moreover, emerging studies suggest HIIT may promote neuroplasticity and motor learning, although the evidence remains inconsistent due to variations in training protocols, participant profiles, and measured outcomes. While the current data support HIIT’s efficacy, there is a pressing need for larger, high-quality trials to determine optimal dosage, clarify underlying neurobiological mechanisms, and assess long-term effects across different stroke recovery stages. Until such data are available, personalized HIIT prescriptions, guided by individual capacity and supervised by skilled professionals, remain essential for maximizing safety and effectiveness in clinical practice. HIIT represents an innovative, evidence-based approach to improve both physical performance and neurological outcomes in stroke rehabilitation.
