Personalized Physical Activity and Exercise in Preventive Cardiology

Exercise and physical activity are key in the prevention and management of cardiovascular diseases. While exercise and physical activity are evidence based and valuable for the general population, it has become increasingly important to personalize exercise therapy to maximize its therapeutic effect and support long-term adherence.
