Official Title: Isometric Versus Isotonic Trunk Muscle Strength Training on Lung Function in Heavy Smokers
Brief Summary:
Smoking is a major public health concern, significantly affecting lung function and overall respiratory health.Heavy smoking leads to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, and a decline in lung capacity.Exercise interventions, particularly those targeting the trunk muscles; have demonstrated potential in improving respiratory function.Trunk muscle strength is essential for optimal breathing mechanics, as these muscles support the chest wall and aid in the expansion and contraction of the…
