A member asked:
Are there any exercises to improve lung function/efficiency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Incentive Spirometry: Is what they use in the hospital when you're sick and debilitated. If you're healthy, your lung function and capacity is hard to improve much. Most of the improvement during exercise is due to improved function of the heart.
