Single-limb exercises have been used as a strategy to improve aerobic exercise tolerance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by alleviating the cardiopulmonary demand. We asked whether this strategy would also apply to cardiorespiratory demand and amount of work performed during single-limb and two-limb low-load/high-repetition resistance exercises in 20 patients with COPD [forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)= 1.0 liters, 38% of predicted] and 15 age-, sex-, and activity-matched …
