Effects of Party Horn Training on Respiratory Function and Respiratory Muscle Strength while Using a Spine Mat

Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of party horn training on respiratory function and respiratory muscle strength while in the supine position on a spine mat. We included 42 men divided into two groups: the intervention group (21 men), and the control group (21 men). The training lasted 5 days. The intervention significantly increased maximum inspiratory mouth pressure (PImax) and chest expansion in the intervention group. These findings demonstrate that engaging in party horn training while in the supine position on a spine mat increases the PImax and chest expansion. Further investigation into expiratory muscle training using the party horn is warranted, including modifications of intervention time and load volume.
