IMT based Resistance training
IMT with device group is trained twice daily, with the morning session and afternoon session. The intensity will increase progressively in this group, starting at 60% Maximal Inspiratory Pressure (MIP) and reaching 75% by the end of study. POSITION: Patient will be in sitting position. FREQUENCY: 4 TO 5 times per week. INTENSITY: 60 to 75% of MIP (gradually increment the load by 10%every 2 weeks to reach 75 to 80 %MIP). Time: 15 to 20 minutes.
Theraband Resistive training
IMT training is form of exercise designed to strengthen the muscle that are involve in inhalation, primarily the diaphragm and intercostal muscles. Thera-band resistive training perform twice daily, with morning and afternoon session. Training will be perform 3 times per week. POSITION: patient will be in standing position. INTENSITY: moderate intensity (black and green thera-band used to provide medium resistance). Time: 15 to 20 minutes
