Summary

This study looked at whether high-intensity breathing muscle training can improve respiratory strength, balance, and core endurance in American football players. 24 male athletes aged 18-35 who trained regularly took part. Researchers measured breathing power and core endurance before and after the training to see if it made a difference.
