Abstract
Some evidence was found to support that a period of structured exercise training could improve maximal and functional exercise capacity, skeletal muscle strength, and lumbar bone mineral density in lung transplant recipients. Further studies are needed to determine the potential for exercise training to optimize these functional outcomes and to develop optimal guidelines for exercise prescription in the lung transplant population.
