2. Cycle training program alone (performing on calibrated stationary cycle ergometer).
3. Inspiratory muscle training alone (performing on threshold loading device).
4. Combined cycle training and inspiratory muscle training(performing on calibrated stationary cycle ergometer and threshold loading device).
