Exercise intervention
muscular pain, chest pain
ADVERSE EVENTS
Twelve women (80%) chose to participate in person in the exercise clinic. The three women (20%) who opted for the online intervention indicated travel distance to the exercise clinics as the reason. The median attendance of the 24 scheduled supervised sessions was 92% (range 79–100%). Participants indicated reasons for missed sessions to be “not feeling well enough to exercise” (68% of missed sessions), non-medical appointments (16%), and family-related matters (16%). The mean rating of perceived exertion across all sessions was 13 ± 1 (i.e., somewhat hard). One participant was hospitalized for one night midway through the intervention with chest pain that was diagnosed as muscular pain, likely due to the intervention. No other adverse events were reported.
