Why the study?
Does combined aerobic and resistance training improve muscular strength and body composition compared to aerobic training alone in cardiac rehabilitation patients?
Does combined aerobic and resistance training improve muscular strength and body composition compared to aerobic training alone in cardiac rehabilitation patients?
Adding resistance training to aerobic training in cardiac rehabilitation provides additional benefits in muscular strength and body composition.
Supports adding resistance training to aerobic cardiac rehab; hypothesis-generating and leaves open randomized confirmation.
Resistance training adds to the effects of aerobic training in cardiac rehabilitation patients by improving muscular strength, increasing lean body mass, and reducing body fat.
