LL kkkkkk symptoms, such as dyspnea, are pervasive in the large, growing population of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). To reduce dyspnea and increase functional capacity in patients with COPD, multiple rehabilitation strategies have been developed. Among these strategies, breathing retraining is frequently employed. The most common techniques of breathing retaining are diaphragmatic breathing (DB) and pursed lip breathing (PLB). Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is characterized by an increase in airway resistance and loss of elastic recoil," is associated with an increase in work of breathing, a reduction in ventilatory capacity and reserve, and an alteration in the pattern of breathing** Activity or exercise leads to a further increase in ventilatory demand. In patients with severe COPD, ex-ercise results in an increase in minute ventilation (V), with an increase in respiratory rate (RR), while tidal volume (VT) may remain unchangedº Although ventila-tion-perfusion inequality and oxygen diffusion may not be altered during exercise in COPD, º gas exchange is re-duced in association with a decrease in mixed venous PaO2 and inadequate respiratory muscle pump response to the increase in metabolic demand.” Exercise in patients with COPD leads to respira-tory muscle changes, an increase in the work required of the respiratory muscles with rib cage and accessory muscle recruitment," abdominal muscle contraction,” a reduction in respiratory muscle capacity in ventila-tion, breathing dyssynchrony"" and an increase in RR and inspiratory time-total respiratory cycle time ratio or duty cycle (T/Tror)." Air trapping with exercise leads to a rise in functional residual capacity" with alterations in thorax geometry and respiratory muscle length-tension relationships, which reduces force generation capacity. Paradoxical breathing patterns with inward movement of the abdomen during inspiration also are observed in patients with severe COPD during exercise.** Unlike healthy subjects who generally maintain ventilation with contraction of primary respiratory muscles, patients with severe COPD may breathe with muscles of the upper thorax, shoulder girdle, and neck muscles, and with limited or absent diaphragm contraction at rest.** Alterations in pulmonary function and lung vol-umes moderate the intrinsic characteristics and func-
