{"id":10,"user_id":null,"title":"Novel Methods of Inspiratory Muscle Training via the Test of Incremental Respiratory Endurance (TIRE)","summary":"The favorable effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in health and disease are becoming much more apparent. A variety of IMT methods exist, but very few studies have compared IMT methods. The purpose of this paper is to review the methods and outcomes of the Test of Incremental Respiratory Endurance (TIRE). The Test of Incremental Respiratory Endurance (TIRE) appears to have substantial potential to better direct and target inspiratory muscle training.","fulltext":"TIRE testing and IMT provide a template from which a variety of outcomes and training regimens are possible. Several key relevant outcomes include the MIP, SMIP, accumulated SMIP, slope of the SMIP, and TTmus. TIRE IMT provides a training stimulus throughout the full range of inspiration with the capacity to alter the form of training (endurance, strength, power, and combinations of each) at various points in the SMIP to elicit wanted effects for specific tasks or sports. Future research is warranted to further examine novel forms of TIRE IMT as well as the clinical utility of TIRE testing outcomes in various healthy and diseased populations in whom improved breathing could result in improved symptoms and functional/exercise performance. Furthermore, the methods and outcomes of TIRE testing and training should be examined and applied to the expiratory muscles.\r\n\r\n[Read the study](https://journals.lww.com/acsm-essr/fulltext/2015/04000/novel_methods_of_inspiratory_muscle_training_via.4.aspx)","category":1,"position":12,"created_at":"2024-07-15T19:16:38.774Z","updated_at":"2024-08-25T20:14:21.949Z","url":"https://www.pro2health.com/articles/10.json"}
