Time-efficient, high-resistance inspiratory muscle strength training increases cerebrovascular reactivity in midlife and older adults

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Midlife/older adults with above-normal blood pressure are at increased risk of developing cognitive decline and dementia. Our findings suggest that high-resistance inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST), a novel, time-efficient (5–10 min/day) form of physical training, may increase cerebrovascular reactivity to CO2 and episodic memory in midlife/older adults with initial above-normal blood pressure.
