    Dr. Mehmet Oz answered:
    If you have any history of heart disease, including coronary artery disease, you must consult your doctor before starting an exercise program. Ask your doctor to refer you to a cardiac rehabilitation program, where they can monitor your ability to perform the exercise safely.
