Pilates versus high-intensity interval training for asthma fitness
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial compares two exercise programs — Pilates and high-intensity interval training (short bursts of intense exercise) — to see which better improves your heart and lung fitness. It is designed for adults with partially controlled asthma who are overweight.
