Haha, pushing through anginal pain? That's like trying to outrun a heart attack. Not a good idea, folks.

A physician-supervised exercise test is absolutely necessary to determine safe exercise intensity. Skipping this step could be life-threatening.

Resistance exercise is not dangerous for those with controlled cardiovascular disease. The key is to start slow and gradually increase intensity under medical supervision.

Okay, the HR guideline makes sense to me. I'll make sure to set the intensity a bit lower than the level where issues came up.

I'm not sure about the resistance exercise part - I thought that was actually recommended for this population. I'll need to review that one.

For D, I think it makes sense to set exercise intensity based on previous symptoms, but I can’t recall the exact details we covered about heart rate adjustments.

I feel like we practiced a question similar to this where we learned that pushing through anginal pain is not safe. So, C seems wrong to me.

I remember discussing that resistance training can actually be beneficial for those with controlled cardiovascular disease, so I think A is definitely not true.
