Cardiac Rehabilitation and Coronary Artery Disease

The multimodal supervised exercise program will include aerobic, resistance, and flexibility exercises. The training program will last 12 weeks, performed in 3 weekly sessions lasting 60 minutes each. Aerobic exercise, lasting between 20-30 minutes, will be conducted on a treadmill or stationary bike at an intensity ranging from 75-85% of the maximal heart rate (HR), based on the cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Resistance training, lasting 30 minutes, will include 8 to 10 exercises performed in 3 sets of 10 to 12 maximum repetitions with 1-minute intervals, targeting major muscle groups of the upper and lower limbs, with loads corresponding to 80-90% of the 10-repetitions maximum (RM).
