Collin has a history of hypertension that is currently managed by his physician with Nadolol. Collin has approached you with a desire to begin an exercise program, because his physician informed him that aerobic exercise will elicit an average reduction of 10 mmHg for both systolic and diastolic blood pressures. Collin’s blood pressure is routinely under 200/110 mmHg level that would be contraindicate exercise. You recommend 3 to 7 days per week of aerobic exercise and an intensity of 40-70% of VO2R. Although he has been medically cleared to initiate an exercise program, you do not have the details of his stress test. Explain why you cannot use HR to prescribe exercise intensity in this case. Be as specific as possible. What would you use instead to predict HR?
