study group

Will receive diaphragmatic breathing with pursed lips as (breathing exercise), They will instruct to perform 3 different conditions will be registered: (1) 6 min of quiet breathing (3 sets of 2 min each), defined as spontaneous breathing pattern; (2) 6 min of diaphragmatic breathing (3 sets of 2 min each); and (3) 6 min of diaphragmatic breathing plus pursed-lips breathing (3 sets of 2 min each).

For aerobic exercises: Will include the following exercises: walking, cycling, running and intermittent running. The exercises will perform for 18-60 minutes for 1-2 sets per week.

For resistance exercises: Will include the following 8 exercises: shoulder press, biceps curl, triceps curl, bench press, leg squats, leg press, leg curl and toe raise. The exercises will perform for 60 minutes for 2-3 sets per week.
