Functional Inspiratory Muscle Training in Obese Individuals
The Investigation of the Effects of Functional Inspiratory Muscle Training in Obese Individuals
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
In obese individuals, increased adipose tissue and systemic inflammation play a key role in the development of cardiometabolic diseases, pulmonary system dysfunction, and many respiratory diseases. Existing research has demonstrated beneficial clinical outcomes of inspiratory muscle training or combined aerobic and resistance exercise training in obese individuals. However, this focused on the isolated effects of exercise on obesity. In the current literature, no study is evaluating the effectiveness of functional inspiratory muscle training in obese individuals. This study aims to investigate the effects of functional inspiratory muscle training on body composition, cardiometabolic markers, functional capacity, respiratory function, respiratory muscle strength, and respiratory muscle performance in obese individuals.
