Answer to Question 1

Typically, the exercise prescription includes the following four related components: (1) lower ex-tremity (leg) aerobic exercises, (2) timed walking (6- or 12-min walk), (3) upper extremity (arm) aerobic exercises, and (4) ventilatory muscle training.

This format is good for self-directed patients, or those with scheduling difficulties. It also may be the best format for patients requiring individual attention.
