Abstract
What is the central question of this study? What impact does inspiratory muscle training
have on systemic vascular resistance, cardiac output and baroreflex sensitivity in
adult men and women? What is the main finding and its importance? Inspiratory muscle
training exerts favorable effects on blood pressure, vascular resistance and perception
of stress. This exercise format is well-tolerated and equally effective whether implemented
in men or women.
