About

This study will investigate the effects of inspiratory and expiratory muscle training on respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function, and performance status in adolescent athletes

Full description

In the literature, it has been shown in a limited number of studies that respiratory muscle training in sports such as football, cycling, swimming, and rugby reduces athletes' perceived exertion levels. However, the effects of inspiratory and expiratory muscle training on respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function, and performance status in adolescent athletes are still unclear. Therefore, this study has been planned.
