==Training==
There is evidence to support that the use of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) as a training intervention can be implemented to increase the aerobic fitness, respiratory function, and overall quality of life in this population of athletes. IMT in particular has been shown to improve respiratory muscle function and might help to reduce [[dyspnea]] on exertion.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Caleffi Pereira|first1=Mayra|last2=Dacha|first2=Sauwaluk|last3=Testelmans|first3=Dries|last4=Gosselink|first4=Rik|last5=Langer|first5=Daniel|date=June 2019|title=Assessing the effects of inspiratory muscle training in a patient with unilateral diaphragm dysfunction|journal=Breathe |volume=15|issue=2|pages=e90–e96|doi=10.1183/20734735.0129-2019|issn=1810-6838|pmc=6876147|pmid=31777570}}</ref> Long term physiological adaptations through prolonged training demonstrated within athletes with disabilities include increased respiratory volume, improved executive functions and increased reaction time among other benefits in relation to non athletes in the same age group.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Dehghansai|first=Nima|date=January 2017|title=Touro College-New York|journal=Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly|volume=34| issue =  1|pages=72–90|doi=10.1123/APAQ.2016-0030|pmid=28218871|doi-access=free}}</ref> Although parasports seem to have a positive impact on the disabled athletes, the impact really can interlude with one another.
