Respiratory muscles training

Abnormal gas exchange, malnutrition, and prolonged use of controlled ventilation, leading to selective diaphragmatic muscle atrophy, add to peripheral and respiratory muscle weakness (38). Many of the above reasons make it likely that patients will benefit from PT that targets respiratory and skeletal muscle function, although clearer evidence of positive outcomes is still required (53). Inspiratory muscle training has been shown to facilitate...

In addition to cardiac and respiratory efforts, muscle activity is the next important parameter in terms of understanding how the body performs during training. Such information enables the wearer or coach to understand how the body is performing. Imbalances in the use of body muscles can be detected. Muscle fatigue can be estimated. Muscle performance capacity and efficiency can be analysed.
