5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to understand the differences in how patients with heart failure respond to exercise training compared to patients with heart failure and type 2 diabetes.
Detailed Description
The investigators will measure exercise capacity in patients with heart failure or heart failure plus type 2 diabetes prior to and following a 12-week exercise training program (5d/wk, 30 min/d, 60-75% VO2max) to determine whether improvements in exercise capacity in response to exercise training are mitigated in patients with combined heart failure plus type 2 diabetes.
