Twelve patients with history of coronary artery disease were recruited as subjects, and they participate in the program under agreement. Five persons were randomly assigned an exercise group with 8-week exercise training ( n=5) and seven persons to a control group with a usual care ( n=7). Exercise group perform bicycle exercise at 50-70% of maximal heart rate and rate of perceived exertion scale is assistive referenced, three sessions a week, each session for total 40-50 minutes, including warm-up and cold down exercise per session, for a total of eight weeks. Physical fitness assessment, blood lipid profiles by biochemical and peak oxygen consumption will be evaluated by symptom-limited grade testing before and after 8 weeks of exercise training. The data were analyzed by one-way ANCOVA to examine any changes before and after training. The statistical significance was determined at α=.05. Between two groups, we find statistical difference(p< .05) in maximal grasp(32.88 vs. 28.97kg), flexibility(28.23 vs. 24.61cm), endurance index（66.35 vs. 39.93） TG(137.27 vs. 182..67 mg‧dl-1), LDL-C(122.47 vs. 151.80 mg‧dl-1) and peak oxygen consumption(26.76 vs. 16.90 ml‧kg-1‧min-1) after eight weeks of exercise intervention. Eight weeks of exercise training could improve physical fitness, blood lipid profiles and peak oxygen consumption of patients with coronary artery disease, and exercise training let patients recovery soon.
