This book demonstrates the principle of exercise testing and training, describing in precise and technical detail the use of exercise prescription to support the management of cardiac patients. It comprehensively reviews all available solutions for exercise testing with appropriate consideration of optimal testing conditions, especially when more rigorous cardiopulmonary testing is unavailable. Translation of testing results into exercise training parameters should follow specific rules, and the authors present their approach and the development of specific tools to assist, such as instant exercise intensity calculators or interval-to-continuous approach with flexible progression rate based on heart rate plateau. Predicted training intensity and adequate training progression remain key elements of successful exercise prescription. Finally, this book describes how an exercise prescription follow-up program will determine long-term outcome.
