From Hypertension to "Teenager Again": A 63-Year-Old’s KineDek Success Story
Eight months ago, Mike was facing a tough reality—high blood pressure, severe unfitness, and significant excess weight. Like many in his position, he knew he needed a change but wasn’t sure where to start. That’s when he began once-weekly 20-minute KineDek AI-CRT sessions.
Fast forward to today, and the transformation is nothing short of remarkable. His blood pressure, once dangerously high, has now settled into a healthy range, with recent readings at 106/72 and 96/68—numbers that even an Olympic athlete would envy! But the biggest surprise? His doctor was so impressed that he joked he had the blood pressure of a teenager again!
Why KineDek AI-CRT Was a Gamechanger
For individuals like Mike, traditional exercise options were not realistic. Walking was not an option—just climbing three porch steps left him breathless and needing recovery, and walking 20 meters required a break or a seat. Since walking for at least 30 minutes daily is typically needed to make a real difference, it would have taken him many months just to build a basic level of fitness. Starting from such a low level of endurance can feel like an impossible mountain to climb—a deeply demotivating situation.
This is where KineDek AI-CRT made all the difference. Unlike weight training or high-intensity workouts that can be too strenuous and unsustainable, KineDek adapts to his ability, providing resistance that matches his muscles’ natural contraction rhythms without strain. This allowed him to progressively build strength, cardiovascular efficiency, and endurance—without the setbacks of fatigue, pain, or long recovery periods.
Fitness Gains, Weight Loss & a New Body Shape
Beyond the numbers, his overall health has taken a dramatic turn. He’s now significantly fitter, lost weight, and gained muscle tone, completely reshaping his body. What once felt impossible is now second nature—he can walk long distances, do house chores with ease, and live without the burden of constant exhaustion.
Medications & Next Steps
Despite his impressive progress, he’s still on multiple medications, including Zetomax (a diuretic and ACE inhibitor), Carvedilol (a beta-blocker), Myoprin (a blood thinner), and Adco Dopamax. This combination suggests that his initial condition involved hypertension, high cardiovascular risk, and possibly past cardiovascular events or concerns like heart failure or stroke prevention.
Zetomax (ACE inhibitor + diuretic): Used for lowering blood pressure and reducing fluid retention.
Carvedilol (beta-blocker): Helps lower heart rate and BP, often prescribed for heart failure or post-cardiac event management.
Myoprin (blood thinner): Likely prescribed to prevent clotting, which could suggest a prior risk of stroke or other cardiovascular concerns.
Adco Dopamax: Indapamide oral tablet is a prescription medication that's used to treat high blood pressure, as well as edema in people with congestive heart failure..
Given his now-low BP, a discussion about adjusting his medication with his hypertension specialist is on the table.
Blood Pressure & Heart Rate: A Positive Shift
At his last check-up, his doctor saw a BP reading of 117/79—a stark contrast from where he started. The verdict? “You’re like a teenager again!” He, however, is not aware of his latest readings, which will be addressed at his next consultation.
His recent blood pressure values, although at the extreme low end of the normal spectrum, are not concerning for hypotension since he is experiencing no symptoms such as lightheadedness or lethargy. Additionally, his heart rate of 64 bpm is particularly interesting. Given his initial fitness level and the fact that he is still on Carvedilol (a beta-blocker known for lowering heart rate), this suggests significant cardiovascular improvement. His heart is now working more efficiently, a clear marker of enhanced fitness and metabolic health.
Takeaway: The Power of KineDek AI-CRT
This case highlights the incredible impact of KineDek AI-CRT on metabolic health, blood pressure, and overall vitality. In less than six months, he has turned his health around—not just in numbers, but in how he feels every day.
And if his doctor says he’s like a teenager again, that’s a pretty good sign he’s on the right track!
Could KineDek be the missing piece in your health journey? If you’re ready to take control of your fitness and well-being, it might be time to try it for yourself!
Medical Note — 1 June 2025
At his twice-yearly check-up with his hypertension specialist, one of his blood pressure medication (Adco Dopamax) was discontinued. The doctor also observed notable weight loss and a significant improvement in lean muscle mass.
Initial condition (April 2024, before KineDek):
-
Severely overweight and highly inactive.
-
Even climbing the three steps to the porch was a challenge.
-
Required five-minute rest periods between sets to recover breathing and heart rate, despite the sessions being non-cardiovascular.
Activity and lifestyle factors:
-
Since April 2024, he has consistently completed one weekly 20-minute KineDek AI-CRT session.
-
Remained otherwise sedentary.
-
Made no dietary changes, continuing to consume high levels of sugary foods, refined carbohydrates, and unhealthy fats.
Outcomes:
-
At his October 2024 appointment, blood pressure had already improved to 115/80 mmHg, which the doctor described as “reading like a teenager’s.”
-
No other lifestyle modifications were made during this time, suggesting that the weekly KineDek sessions were the primary driver of cardiovascular and metabolic improvements.
-
As of June 2025, blood pressure remains well-regulated without the removed medication. Current BP is around 110/71.
While the health benefits of exercise are well established, Vekta® advises that no changes to prescribed medication should be made without consultation with a qualified medical professional. This case highlights a successful example where medical treatment served its intended short- to medium-term purpose—stabilizing a critical condition—while an effective lifestyle intervention was introduced and sustained.
