Physiological consequences of the work of breathing and of inspiratory muscle training

open access: yes, 2009
A reduced blood lactate concentration ([lac-]B) is commonly observed during whole-body exercise following inspiratory muscle training (IMT). However, whether the inspiratory muscles are, in part, the source of these reductions remains unknown ...
