What can you expect?
The test consists of a MIP test (Maximal inspiratory Pressure) and a vital capacity test. The MIP test measures the strength of the muscles responsible for inhaling. The vital capacity test measures the maximum amount of air you can exhale. This provides insight into the strength and endurance of your respiratory muscles, such as the diaphragm and intercostal muscles.
The stronger your respiratory muscles are, the more oxygen your muscles receive. That’s crucial, especially during intense exercise. To effectively strengthen these muscles, you receive personalised advice based on your test results. With tools like PowerBreathe or Aerofit, you can start training at home. The strength and endurance of your lungs will improve immediately.
