Combined resistance and aerobic training in asthmatic adolescents: a quasi-experimental study

Key Points

Asthmatic adolescents demonstrated improved forced vital capacity after a 4-week training program, enhancing respiratory function and physical health.
An increase in respiratory muscle strength and quality of life indicators reflects the efficacy of combined training in this demographic.
Quasi-experimental analysis targeted asthmatic adolescents, focusing on functional metrics related to respiratory health and fitness.
Improvements in asthma control imply possible long-term benefits, emphasizing the need for further studies to expand on these findings.

Abstract

Asthmatic adolescents undergoing a combined training program presented improvements in forced vital capacity, respiratory muscle strength, physical fitness, and quality of life. Furthermore, after 4 weeks of training, an improvement in asthma control was observed in people with EIB.
