Publicly Available in cIRcle 2012-10-09 Abstract: Mechanical
ventilatory constraints have been shown to develop in healthy
endurance-trained (ET) men, and both ET and untrained women due
to structural and functional sex-based differences with respect
to the pulmonary system. The purpose of this study was to
compare the effects of unloading the respiratory system using a
heliox (He-O₂) inspirate on expiratory flow limitation (EFL),
the work of breathing (WOB), operational lung volumes and
