Breathing retraining for combat athletes
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study tests whether a special breathing exercise device can help basketball players' diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) recover faster after exercise. It may improve breathing efficiency and athletic performance.
This study compares three different exercise methods to see which one best strengthens your diaphragm (the main breathing muscle) and improves your overall breathing. If you are a healthy young adult, you might help find better ways to improve breathing fitness.
This study tests whether a breathing muscle training program (using an app) can improve endurance in healthy cyclists and triathletes. If you are a competitive road cyclist or triathlete, this might help you learn more about your breathing and performance.
