Adverse effects Intervention No adverse effects occurred during training or exercise testing.
Control

aDescribed in the original papers as "detraining" but corresponding to our definition of 'off training'.

CI: confidence interval; FEV1: forced expiratory volume in 1 second; FVC: forced vital capacity; HRQoL: health‐related quality of life; N/A: not applicable; PImax: maximum inspiratory mouth pressure; SEM: standard error of the mean; VO2 peak: peak oxygen consumption.
