We found that patients with transplants, regardless of transplant type, and sedentary control subjects experience significant increases in aerobic fitness after 10 weeks of Dragon boat training. However, the magnitude of improvement in aerobic fitness depends on the transplant type, with patients having cardiac transplant experiencing greater relative changes in response to training than patients with noncardiac transplant. It also appears that patients with cardiac and noncardiac transplants have an increased reliance on anaerobic energy systems during exercise conditions compared with healthy control subjects.
