Breathlessness or dyspnea is a primary characteristic of exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) and prevents individuals from inhaling and exhaling without effort. The reduced ability to breathe then impacts their function in daily life and engagement in recreational activities. This single subject research study investigated the effect of inspiratory muscle training on maximum perceived breathlessness, maximum phonation time, duration of running, and quality of life regarding dyspnea with EILO in adolescent athletes.
