The Ontario Exercise-Heart Collaborative Study was a multicenter randomized clinical trial of high intensity exercise for the prevention of recurrent myocardial infarction in men. The 4-year recurrence rate among 379 patients on a program of high intensity exercise did not differ significantly from that among 354 control patients on a program of light exercise, despite the greater reduction in heart rate in the former group. The relative odds of recurrence in the high intensity group were 1.09, with 95% confidence limits of 0.61 and 1.96.
