Summary

This study evaluates the addition of high-intensity interval training to the standard pre-heart transplantation clinical care.

High-Intensity Interval Training

Participants will complete supervised exercise sessions. Participants will attend on-site high-intensity interval training two times weekly for 12 weeks. Participants will complete six-minute walk test, cardiopulmonary exercise test, and six questionnaires: Short Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaire (SF-36), Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ), Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), and Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R) at baseline (week 1) and follow-up (after 12 weeks of intervention).
