Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A Special Issue on respiratory muscle training (RMT) is being organized in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. For detailed information on the journal, please see https://0-www-mdpi-com.brum.beds.ac.uk/journal/ijerph.
RMT has been considered to be an effective method to improve performance in a wide range of exercise modalities, including running, cycling, swimming, and rowing. RMT may also improve exercise capacity, dyspnea, and quality of life of patients with chronic heart disease or respiratory disease, such as COPD and asthma. However, new research in the field is emerging in order to optimize health and performance by applying novel RMT devices, which can be used while performing physical exercise.
This Special Issue offers an opportunity to publish high-quality multidisciplinary research and reviews focused on the development of intervention strategies related to RMT to increase performance, physical capacity, and quality of life in both healthy and illness conditions.
Investigators who have conducted research on these topics are invited to submit manuscripts for consideration for this Special Issue in IJERPH.
