Abstract
Background Diaphragm activation plays a crucial role in various function activities through the adequate core muscle setup. In order to bring a change in balance, agility, and respiratory outcomes in recreational athletes, the role of combined diaphragm and balance training is still under debate. Purpose The study aimed to investigate the added effect of respiratory training on balance training in recreational athletes. Methods Forty-two male recreational athletes were randomized into either the balance training group alone or the added respiratory training group. Result The result of the study revealed that the agility, balance, and respiratory outcomes were improved significantly (p < 0.05) in the combined respiratory and balance training group. However, in the balance training group seperately, the respiratory and agility outcomes did not improve significantly (p > 0.05), but the balance outcomes improved significantly (p < 0.05). Conclusion The study concludes that additional respiratory training can help enhance respiratory and agility outcomes compared to balance training alone.
