About This Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether partly replacing aerobic interval training (AIT) with resistance training (RT) leads to greater improvements in physical fitness and muscle mass in women with coronary artery disease (CAD) during cardiac rehabilitation.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* Does combining RT (squats and pulling exercises with weights) with a re…
