Experimental
Physical Exercise
The program of physical exercise was a resistance and aerobic training, initiated at low intensity and with a slow progressing according to the patient's tolerance. In aerobic exercise, for greater effectiveness of the training, the literature recommends moderate intensity, which corresponds with 50 to 70% of the maximum heart rate. Patients were instructed to keep the most constant as possible the speed during exercise on treadmill or cycle ergometer. For muscle strengthening exercises, the number of repetitions varied from 1 to 4 sets of 10 to 15 repetitions.
