Summary

This trial will test whether using a Respiratory Muscle Training device during high-intensity functional training can improve fitness and breathing parameters. They will measure aerobic, anaerobic, and HIFT performance as primary

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy individuals interested in testing how a Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) device might affect their fitness during high-intensity workouts. Participants should be willing to undergo fitness tests and answer questionnaires about sleep, mood, and feelings.
What is being tested?
The study is comparing the effects of using an RMT device versus not using one during intense exercise routines. It's designed to see if the device can improve aerobic capacity, anaerobic power, and overall performance in high-intensity functional training.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves healthy subjects and non-invasive interventions, significant side effects are not anticipated. However, participants may experience fatigue or muscle soreness due to the intensity of the workouts.
