Inspiratory muscles pre-activation (IM) has been studied to improve subsequent performance in swimming. However, the effects of IM on various parameters in swimmers are still unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of IM on the mechanical parameters, physiological responses, and their possible correlations with swimming performance.

This study aimed to systematically review the literature to examine the effects of inspiratory-muscle warm-up (IMW) on the inspiratory, metabolic, respiratory and performance parameters of a main exercise performed by athletes and healthy and active individuals. This systematic review included randomized studies in English based on the criteria of the PICOS model. The exclusion criteria adopted were studies that applied inspiratory exercise to: i.

This study investigated the effects of inspiratory muscle pre-activation (IM) on the interactions among the technical-tactical, physical, physiological, and psychophysiological parameters in a simulated judo match, based on the centrality metrics by complex network model. Ten male athletes performed 4 experimental sessions. Firstly, anthropometric measurements, maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and global strenght of the inspiratory muscles were determined.
