Cardiovascular and skeletal muscle adaptations were studied before and after 6 mo of physical training in patients with coronary artery disease and exertional angina pectoris. Symptom-limited exercise capacity increased by 41% (470 +/- 30 to 665 +/- 35 kg.m.min-1; n = 29, P less than 0.001) with training as did skeletal muscle succinate dehydrogenase activity (1.75 +/- 0.24 to 3.31 +/- 0.24 IU; n = 23, P less than 0.001) and the areas of muscle fibers (type I from 43.6 +/- 3.3 to 54.4 +/- 3.3 micrometers 2 X 10(2); n = 21, P less than 0.05 and type II from 43.9 +/- 2.4 to 57.2 +/- 5.1 micrometers 2 X 10(2); P less than 0.01). At the same submaximal exercise intensity (mean 355 +/- 100 km.m.min-1), plasma catecholamines (1.31 +/- 0.14 to 1.07 +/- 0.09 ng.ml-1; n = 13, P less than 0.05), heart rate (115 +/- 3 to 97 +/- 3 beats/min; n = 29, P less than 0.001), and systolic blood pressure (171 +/- 4 to 143 +2- 4 mmHg; n = 29, P less than 0.001) were significantly reduced after training. Maximal coronary sinus blood flow (192 +/- 10 to 208 +/- 9 ml.min-1; n = 29, P less than 0.05) and left ventricular oxygen consumption (23.2 +/- 1.5 to 25.8 +/- 1.6 ml.min-1; n = 24, P less than 0.05) were increased by 8 and 11%, respectively, after training. The improvement in exercise capacity with training in patients with exercise is secondary to a reduction in myocardial oxygen requirements during subangina levels of exercise and partly to a small increase in maximal myocardial oxygen consumption. The skeletal muscle adaptations with training were not related to other indices of training such as the reduced exercise heart rate or increased symptom-limited exercise capacity.
