Summary

Purpose: to investigate the hypothetical additive value of a sudden rest-exercise training over the cardiac vagal of cardiac patients in a supervised exercise program.

Conditions

  • Subjects Evaluated With Low Cardiac Vagal Tone

Interventions

OTHER

Supervised exercise program

Aerobic, strength and flexibility exercises in a supervised exercise program for 8 weeks; after 8 weeks will add a specific sudden rest-exercise training protocol, three times a week. The cardiac vagal index will be measured at every 8 weeks.

OTHER

Supervised exercise program together with a specific sudden rest-exercise training protocol

Aerobic, strength and flexibility exercises in a supervised exercise program for 8 weeks together with a specific sudden rest-exercise training protocol, three times a week After 8 weeks will discontinue the specific sudden rest-exercise training protocol. The cardiac vagal index will be measured at every 8 weeks.
