Comparisons between endurance and strength training in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have produced equivocal findings when examining physical function and health-related quality of life (HRQL). One reason for these differences may be due to individual patient responses to the different training modalities. PURPOSE: To compare changes in physical function and HRQL in a group of COPD patients completing both an endurance and a strength training program. METHODS: Eleven mildly diseased patients completed a three month endurance training program and, approximately 5 years later, completed a three month strength training program. Changes in 6 minute walk distance (6 MW), time to rise from a chair five times (CRT), and the total score and subscores from the SF-36 and Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire (CRQ) were examined. RESULTS: The forced expiratory volume as a percent of predicted remained relatively constant over the 5 years (61.1 ± 5.9 vs. 60.0 ± 10.3). Endurance and strength training increased 6 MW by 48.2 ± 11.2 (p = 0.008) and 39.8 ± 9.8 (p = 0.001) meters, respectively. Endurance and strength training decreased CRT by 4.8 ± 0.7 (p = 0.001) and 1.3 ± 1.2 (p = 0.056) seconds, respectively. Endurance training resulted in greater improvements in HRQL as compared to strength training. CONCLUSION: These results show that walk distance improves as a result of participating in either an endurance or a strength training program. However, an endurance training program leads to greater improvements in both general and disease specific measures of HRQL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
