Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and exercise prescription in secondary prevention patients is a class I indication in most clinical guidelines. CR programs not only include exercise components but also provide comprehensive care and education about cardiovascular risk factors, cigarette smoking, and behavioral interventions. However, CR programs are scarce or inexistent in many developing countries; in the United States and Europe, where they do exist, they are underused. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

| Evidence from long-term epidemiologic studies supports the concept that the fitness level of an individual is inversely and strongly associated to cardiovascular and total mortality in both healthy populations [1, 2] and in secondary prevention patients [3]. The relationship is robust and graded [2, 4] and independent of confounding risk factors. Based on the striking data supporting the benefits of exercise in reducing the risk of development and progression of CHD, multiple health care agencies and organizations worldwide have recommended regular physical activity as a strategy to reduce the risk of CHD. Among these organizations are the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Heart Association (AHA), the American College of Cardiology (ACC), the National Institutes of Health, the American College of Sports Medicine, and the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). However, despite the efforts devoted to promoting physical activity, sedentary lifestyle is still highly prevalent in the United States, Europe, and Latin America [5]. |
