Future research may focus on the effects of respiratory muscle strength training in less advanced singers.
Six graduate-level singing students were recruited to complete the protocol, which consisted of a baseline phase followed by either inspiratory muscle strength training followed by expiratory muscle strength training or vice versa.
One group received 5 weeks of expiratory muscle strength training followed by six sessions of traditional voice therapy.
To determine the effect of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) on both cough and swallow function in stroke patients.
Expiratory muscle strength training in persons with multiple sclerosis having mild to moderate disability: effect on maximal expiratory pressure, pulmonary function, and maximal voluntary cough.
The study findings will help clinicians to provide more effective and efficient strategies for muscle strength training in children with CP.
Intervention: The experimental group (n = 32) underwent a physical training program that included warm-up, stretching, peripheral muscle strength training and walking at a controlled speed for 15 minutes.
IMST, inspiratory muscle strength training.
The result was significant only for the muscle strength training group (P=0.003; R=0.236).
EB advised on the training schedule for aerobic and muscle strength training of the exercise programme.
The 12-week program combines balance exercises, muscle strength training, Tai Chi, and flexibility/stretching exercises.
