Cardiovascular Rehabilitation Through Aerobic Walk Training: a Case Study 2022 http://ezaposleni.singidunum.ac.rs/rest/sciNaucniRezultati/oai/record/2/9080 https://sportscience.ba/pdf/br29.pdf M. Milošević I. Rađo N. Selimović M. Milošević Although the results of the research on the benefits of physical activity and exercise against cardiovascular disease are congruent, specific recommendations are very diverse. This is especially true when it comes to planning and programming the physical activity of convalescents. Based on a large amount of previous research, the training technology was developed and validation was performed on 398 participants, while in practice, it was used by more than 25000 people from different populations. The aim of this case study is to demonstrate that it is possible and highly beneficial to apply individual training programming in the rehabilitation of coronary patients. The main working hypothesis is that a 4-week training programme will lead to a significant increase in the participant’s state of physical fitness. The implementation of the training technology on a participant who had suffered a myocardial infarction will be presented and evaluated, following a period of four weeks. The training was programmed directly via oxygen uptake and realised under the control of a physician, with constant monitoring of heart rate frequency. Continuous walking is used as a basic training tool. The participant improved the results for maximum oxygen uptake by 26.6%, maximum relative oxygen uptake by 16%, speed at which maximum oxygen uptake occurs by 10%, and on the Cooper test by 10%. He started with 42% of genetic capacity in maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) and 39% in maximum relative oxygen consumption (VO2rel). After four weeks of training, he reached 53% of VO2max and 44% of VO2rel. Throughout this, he maintained a stable state without any visible symptoms of the underlying disease. This kind of training is a powerful incentive for the increase in cardiovascular adaptation, the oxidative capacity of the skeletal muscles, the biogenesis of mitochondria, and other physiological adaptations of the participant. article 15 1 48 57 1840-3662 Sport Science
