Inspiratory muscle training attenuates the human respiratory muscle metaboreflex

PURPOSE: High-resistance inspiratory muscle work results in inspiratory muscle fatigue and sympathetically mediated increases in heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP). We hypothesized that 5 wks of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) would attenuate such a response. METHODS: An experimen...
