Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased thickness of the diaphragm after the intervention of resistance training. To evaluate the thickness of the diaphragm will use an ultrasound apparatus. The expected outcome is evidenced by a variation of at least 5% in each evaluation used pre and post intervention | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increasing maximal expiratory and inspiratory pressure, evaluated by analog manometer, considered a variation of at least 5% in pre and post-intervention measurements | — |
