Summary

This study looked at whether a 4-week program of breathing muscle training, aerobic exercise, or both could improve breathing strength, walking ability, and well-being in women with stable COPD. 68 women aged 48-65 with mild-to-moderate COPD took part. The researchers also checked if any benefits lasted for 2 weeks after the training stopped. The main goal was to see if these exercises could ease symptoms and improve daily life.
