In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on the performance of athletes in CrossFit® activities, respiratory muscle strength, and perceived post-training fatigue. This study follows a two-arm randomized controlled trial protocol. Ninety-four volunteers aged between 18 and 60 years, enrolled in CrossFit® training, will be randomly allocated to the IMT Group, which involves respiratory training using a linear load device (Powerbreathe®) in conjunction with CrossFit® training; or the Non-IMT Group, which undergoes the same training as the intervention group but uses a device without a valve that ensures resistance. The primary outcome is to investigate the effectiveness of IMT: on maximum inspiratory pressure and maximum expiratory pressure. The secondary outcomes include performance in the six-minute walk test, Pis
