Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
pulmonary function Baseline and week 2, week 4 after training FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, %FVC, %FEV1, MVV, %MVV will be determined by using spirometry,inspiratory muscle strength Baseline and week 2, week 4 after training MIP will be measured by using micro RPM portable manometer

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Heart rate variability Baseline and week 2, week 4 after training LF, HF, LF/HF ratio, SDNN, SDANN, ASDNN, rMSSD, pNN50 will be determined by 24-h analysis of heart rate variability (HRV)
