Summary

This study looks at how lung function, respiratory muscle strength, balance, and quality of life relate in Paralympic athletes. Researchers will measure breathing capacity, muscle strength, and balance in 24 athletes from sports like athletics, swimming, archery, and wheelchair basketball. They will also compare these measures across different disability types and genders. The goal is to see if supporting respiratory muscle strength could be a useful target in rehabilitation and training.
