You never know when someone you love may need CPR. Practicing hands-only CPR can help build confidence before an emergency happens.
Push hard. Push fast. Aim for a rate of 100–120 compressions per minute.

No one expected a routine workout to become a cardiac emergency.
When it did, people nearby took action. Learning CPR and how to use an AED can help prepare you to respond when every second counts.
