Background. Considering that breathing strategies are essential for athletic performance, insufficient scientific data exists to understand how they operate.
Objectives. This study investigated the effect of conscious diaphragm muscle-based respiratory muscle exercise on respiratory muscle strength and function.
Methods. For that, four groups (IMT-DF (inspiratory muscle training using diaphragm), IMT (inspiratory muscle training), IMT-SHAM (training without intensity), and control) were formed into which 24 healthy sedentary participants were randomly divided. Inspiratory muscle training was organized three days a week for 4 weeks, and respiratory muscle strength (measured with a pressure gauge) and function (measured with a spirometer) were obtained one day before and one day after the 4 weeks. In respiratory muscle strength parameters maximal inspiratory pressure and maximal expiratory pressure (MIP-MEP), significant differences were found in favor of IMT-DF and IMT groups.
Results. Significance was found favoring IMT-DF in analyzing the difference between means and percentage change in comparing pre-post test data between groups. In the pulmonary function tests, a significant difference was found between the IMT-DF group and the IMT group in favor of the IMT-DF group in the forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) parameter; a significant difference was found between the IMT-SHAM group and the IMT-DF group in favor of the IMT-SHAM group, and no significant difference was detected in respiratory functions (p>0.05).
Conclusion. As a result, performing respiratory muscle training specific to the diaphragm muscle may improve respiratory muscle strength and function more positively than regular training.

APPLICABLE REMARKS
• Although breathing plays a crucial part in sportive performance, insufficient scientific information exists to paint a complete and accurate picture of how it works.
• The study's findings imply that diaphragm-specific respiratory muscle exercise affects healthy individual's ability to use their respiratory muscles and their strength.
• These findings are essential in supporting the development and popularization of new training methods that can contribute to sports performance by integrating the diaphragm-focused technique into respiratory muscle training.
