| Title | Exercise in the rehabilitation of CHD patients | |
| Creator | Noakes, T. | |
| Description | The author sets out to show why cardiac patients should follow an exercise regimen and that the important psychological benefits achieved by an exercise rehabilitation programme relate to the healing concept - to making the patient whole again. In addition, the capacity for physical work increases as does the “angina threshold". The safety of the patient is ensured by prescribing exercise based on results of the target heart rate concept. Finally, the author defends walking and jogging as the ideal mode of exercise. | |
