Summary

This trial tests a hybrid exercise program (HyBEST) for people with coronary artery disease. It combines supervised sessions at a center with home workouts using a wearable tracker. The goal is to see if this approach improves exercise capacity, body composition, and quality of life better than standard care. 84 participants will be randomly assigned to either the HyBEST program or usual cardiac rehab.

If successful, this hybrid exercise program could offer a convenient, effective way for heart patients to improve fitness and quality of life at home.
