First day at cardio rehab.
Initially it starts off easy. In fact, I left feeling not very challenged. Five minutes on five cardio machines at low intensity, with setup info and recording my perceived exertion level before and after each.
A few hours later, it was a different story. Achey knees. In fact, a bit of actual pain in my lower legs, especially the right one.

I think two things will happen going forward: I will progress slowly and I will do less after my sessions.
Now, on the one hand, I felt great right after my session today.
On the other, after rehab I went grocery shopping and fueled up the car. But after bringing the groceries up (two trips, because more than ten pounds of groceries were bought), I was pretty knackered, and had some pain in my knees and lower legs.
All right. I just took it easy the rest of the day.

I also got a call from my cardiologist's office - they had been notified by CardioLab, whose heart monitor I've been wearing since the beginning of the month, that there were some abnormalities. They reviewed it and decided it wasn't anything to worry about, but wanted to know if I had any symptoms.
Which I did not.
I'm grateful for that. Also, I'm grateful for the quality of health I do have, and for the resources I have to improve it going forward.
