Thank you for sharing. Positive news.

I could only read the abstract. It indicates that the aerobic exercise group used a stationary exercise trainer, but I don't know the intensity or the duration of the exercise. Does anyone know?

I recall from other reports that 80% of maximum heart rate was the goal.

So that’s 80% of maximum heart rate for how long? I have been told 5 days a week. In my case I use a treadmill

content.iospress.com/articl... The abstract says 3X per week for 40 minutes at 80% of max heart rate. Personally I do A LOT more at a much higher heart rate.
