Breathless Legs? Consider Training Your Respiration

Christina M. Spengler and Urs Boutellier

C. M. Spengler and U. Boutellier are in the Exercise Physiology Research Unit, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology and University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland.

Not only do respiratory muscles fatigue during intensive endurance exercise, but prefatigued respiratory muscles can also impair performance. In turn, respiratory endurance training can improve endurance exercise performance.
