The Norwegian Ullevaal Model of cardiac rehabilitation is a novel high-intensity, interval-training program. The 4 patients with CHF in this case series who participated in this program experienced improvements in physical capacity and quality of life and had no adverse events. These results are consistent with recent evidence supporting the efficacy of high-intensity interval training in people with CHF. Randomized clinical trials are needed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of this group-based, high-intensity, aerobic interval-training program for patients with CHF.

However, research evidence indicates that exercise patterns are poorly maintained. This paper considers stages o f behaviour change relevant to exercise, evidence concerning the factors which influence exercise adoption and maintenance, psychological theories concerning behaviour change and maintenance, and these theories' actual and potential applications to exercise promotion. There remain a number of issues for investigation, at the levels of theory and basic research, applications in community settings, development of selfinstructional and minimal-in tervention programmes, development of public campaigns, and governmental policy development.Aerobic exercise (regular, vigorous, physical activity) has a range of Preparation of this article was supported by a grant to the second author from the Sport and Recreation Ministers' Council.
