Slow respiration has been proven to enhance the magnitudes of these indexes, but individual inspiratory (TI) and expiratory (TE) durations were not controlled in most studies. This study aims to examine whether the effects of TI and TE on these indexes would be the same and, if not, how to adjust TI and TE to maximize the effect of slow respiration.enAcceleration; Deceleration; Expiration; Heart rate; Inspiration[SDGs]SDG3journal article10.1007/s00421-024-05433-2384214282-s2.0-85186198296https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85186198296
