Summary

Patients with a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) will be randomized to either a moderate continuous (MCT, 50-60% of VO2peak) or interval training (IT, 80-90% of VO2peak) group for 6 weeks with 3 sessions per week, lasting for 20 minutes. An additional 10 minutes of resistance training will be performed in each group. Improvement of VO2peak and quality of life (KCCQ score) between the groups will be assessed.
