Inspiratory-muscle fatigue (IMF) may occur after long-duration or continuous short-duration exercise and may limit exercise performance. Daily athletics training is often intermittent, but it is unclear if intermittent running induces IMF. We investigated IMF after a maximal anaerobic running test (MART) and maximal intermittent graded exercise test. Nine female middle-distance (400 or 800 m) r...
