Strength Training Not Linked to Heart Problems for People with Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy
People living with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), a heritable heart condition that can significantly increase risks for sudden cardiac death, are advised to avoid high-intensity aerobic exercise. However, questions remain about whether higher-intensity strength training, which affects the heart differently from endurance exercise, could be less risky. Now, through the Johns Hopkins Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) Registry, investigators conducted one of the first studies to assess the separate effects of strength versus endurance exercise on the heart in ACM and found that strength training was not associated with an increased likelihood for developing a sustained ventricular arrhythmia for people living with or who have genetic risks for the condition.
The findings published Sept. 10 in JACC: Clinical Electrophysiology.
