      Nitric oxide (NO) plays a crucial role in muscle oxidative capacity, which predicts muscle strength. This study aimed to investigate whether different breathing techniques (nasal or oral breathing) affect muscle performance during acute exhaustive exercise. In our study, 49 healthy individuals (24♀/25♂; age 22.8 3.4 years) performed two Wingate anaerobic tests in a counterbalanced order. Although ...
