관상동맥 질환자를 위한 cycle ergometer exercise와 treadmill exercise의 적정 운동강도

The effect of exercise intensity on cycle ergometer exercise and treadmill exercise in patient with coronary heart disease

  The purpose of this study was to determine heart rate (HR), ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and oxygen uptake (Vo₂) at the anaerobic threshold (AT) in two different exercise modalities, cycle ergometer and treadmil exercise (running). Subjects were 13 women patients with coronary heart disease. All sub-maximal and maximal Vo₂ values but Vo₂ at the AT for women were significantly higher in treadmill exercise than cycle ergometer. Submaximal and maximal HR values were not significantly different between the two exercise modalities. However, mean RPE values at the AT were significantly higher in cycle ergometer than treadmill exercise. We suggest that appropriate HR values in exercise training should be the same in cycling and treadmill exercise, while RPE values should be 1 or 2 higher in cycling than running.
