His physician has cleared him for supervised exercise.Using ACSM guidelines, build an exercise prescription for Robert. Include aerobic and resistance training FITT components. Also answer:1. Robert’s anginal threshold occurs at an HR of 130 bpm. What should his target heart rate ceiling be during aerobic exercise, and why?2. Under what circumstances should Robert use prophylactic nitroglycerin before exercise, and what side effect must be monitored after administration?3.
