Hospital-Based and Home-Based Resistance Training in Adult Congenital Heart Disease

"Participants will undergo resistance training using a weight training station and elastic equipment (elastic bands and tubes).~The intensity of the resistance training with the weight training station will be determined based on 1 Repetition Maximum (1RM). Resistance training with the weight training station will be conducted at 30-70% of the 1RM intensity and will include the following exercises: leg extension, pull down, chest press, and pec deck.~The intensity of resistance training using elastic equipment will be determined according to the individual's perceived exertion. Resistance training with elastic equipment will be performed at an intensity of 12-14 on the Borg Scale (moderate to somewhat hard) for movements involving hip flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction.~The resistance training regimen will consist of 8-12 repetitions, 2-3 sets, with at least 1 minute of rest between sets, twice a week for 12 weeks."

"Participants will undergo resistance training at home using elastic equipment (elastic bands and tubes). The intensity of the resistance training will be determined based on the individual's perceived exertion. The training will be conducted at an intensity of 12-14 on the Borg Scale (moderate to somewhat hard), with 8-12 repetitions, 2-3 sets, and a rest period of at least 1 minute between sets, twice a week for 12 weeks. Progression in training intensity will be achieved by increasing the weight once the perceived exertion, as measured on the Modified Borg Scale, falls below 3 (moderate) after completing 20 repetitions.~Resistance training will include exercises such as leg extension, pull down, chest press, pec deck, and movements involving hip flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction. To ensure individuals perform exercises correctly, follow-up will be conducted through online meetings every two weeks. These meetings will not be recorded."
