B
Breathing of decreased volume of ventilation
C
Breathing of increased volume of ventilation for long period
D
Breathing of decreased volume for long period
High-Yield Explanation
Ans. is 'c' i.e.. Breathing of increased volume of ventilation for long period o Specific training of respiratory muscles is generally carried out in one of two ways -Isocapnic hyperpnoea (isocapnic exercise)It requires the individual to breath at an increased volume of ventilation for an extended period.It primarily helps to develop respiratory' muscle endurance.Threshold loadingIt requires the individual to breath for short durations against a resistance.It focuses on building respiratory muscles strength.
