For those patients, a focused grogram targeting specific muscle groups might be a better approach and it has been shown to be effective in increasing VO2. Additionally, it has been shown that vigorous to maximal aerobic exercise, broken into small intervals has a bigger effect than a continuous moderate intensity exercise. Endurance training combined with strength training would increase VO2 and quality of life. However, benefits and optimal intensity of strength training alone or in combination with endurance training is still not known. In addition to mode, intensity, and duration of exercises, an exercise program should include exercises that the patients prefer, home exercises with strategies to adhere patients to the program, information on safety of the exercises, and realistic
