  1. Pipeak is negatively increasing. Each row of data in rows 1-3 are from separate mixed linear models; data in rows 4 and 5 are from the same mixed linear model; data in rows 6 and 7 are from the same mixed linear model.
  2. SE mean, Pipeak peak inspiratory pressure, Pimax maximal inspiratory pressure, TI inspiratory time.
  3. aIndicates main effect of training intervention (pre vs post) was not significant (F1,252.4 = 2.6, p = 0.11).
