title: Novel methods of inspiratory muscle training via the Test of Incremental Respiratory Endurance (TIRE).
abstract: The favorable effects of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in health and disease are becoming much more apparent. A variety of IMT methods exist, but few studies have compared IMT methods. The purpose of this article is to review the methods and outcomes of the Test of Incremental Respiratory Endurance (TIRE).
