RMT increased POur expectation that improvements in PRMT did not directly lower Borg ratings. However, the 32% improvement in inspiratory muscle strength decreased the slope of the relationship between Borg rating and PAs mentioned earlier, participants seemed to have altered their breathing pattern during loaded breaths in the second session of the load magnitude perception task. The direct relationship between the perceived magnitude of an inspiratory load and inspiratory time in the first test session (Table Increased PNot all participants completed the load detection and load magnitude perception tasks (Fig. In conclusion, our findings present a dichotomy for recommendation of RMT as part of rehabilitation for people with chronic tetraplegia. On the one hand, improved inspiratory muscle strength reduced the slope of the relationship between Borg rating and absolute P
