Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the proportion of engagements of individual breathing sectors during 1-min physically active breathing at rest in 163 healthy, physically active participants (students of Physical Education and Sport). The research analyzed breathing movements through the muscle dynamometer MD03 (Hitron, Plzeň, Czech Republic). The proportion of engagements of the individual breathing sector in the group analyzed was determined based on measurement results. The lower breathing sector was engaged at 29.2%, the middle breathing sector at 31.0%, and the upper breathing sector at 39.8%. The largest observed difference between the involvement of individual breath sectors was 10.6% between the lower and upper breathing sectors. The muscle dynamometer MD03 may be instrumental for practising both localized breathing and full breath.
