What this Trial Is About
Obesity is a health condition caused by excessive accumulation of body fat. This condition is linked to the development of chronic diseases and also places increased stress on the respiratory system, leading to respiratory disorders, exacerbation of preexisting respiratory conditions, and a decline in physical capacity and exercise tolerance. Respiratory muscle training has been shown to have beneficial effects on respiratory function in these patients, although the effects this strategy has on other metabolic and physiological aspects related to exercise and obesity that are affected remain unclear.
