Abstract
Respiratory muscle training has emerged as a relevant field of study in the field of health and sports performance. The objective of this study was to describe a training methodology in the inspiratory muscles to improve anaerobic capacity in rugby players. The research is quantitative quasi-experimental of a longitudinal type, where results were compared between an experimental and control group, a total of twenty-two amateur rugby players. Maximum inspiratory pressure and maximum anaerobic power were evaluated (Shuttle Run Test) before the start of training. For inspiratory muscle training, the Powerbreathe® device was used, with a protocol of 60 inspirations at 50% of the maximum inspiratory pressure once a day, three times a week for six weeks. The results obtained showed a significant increase in maximum inspiratory pressure in the experimental group; Likewise, performance in the Shuttle Run test showed an improvement in the experimental group, both with a statistically significant difference. These findings suggest that the program had a positive impact on both indicators, highlighting the importance of interventions focused on improving respiratory capacity and physical performance.
