Background:- Carefully-tailored exercise program in the form of Cardiac rehabilitation has always found positive effects on the patient with cardiac Muscular diseases. Objective of the Study: - This study was investigated on 30 male patients rehabilitation on stable angina.

Method:Aerobic exercises in the form of upper limb and lower limb exercises were advised on the first day which was to be continued for 45 days with a frequency of 4 days a week. Progression was given after every 15 days by using Karvonens formula [THR=RHR + X% (HRmax- RHR)].

Results:Exercise tolerance and cardio pulmonary fitness were measured after 15 days by Borgs scale of RPE and Crompton;s Test. Tread Mill test was also tested. ANOVA, Correlation of Coefficient, T-test and Simple regression equation were applied to compare and correlate the value of the variables by suing SPSS version 7.5.

Conclusion: Early cardiac rehabilitation on stable angina proved better cardiopulmonary fitness on the patients who were given 21%-25%-30% of progression.
