I don't know whether this is on the subject directly or not, but during my recent hip replacement my anesthesiologist gave me an intriguing gadget called a volumetric exerciser which was said to help "develop, improve, and maintain respiratory fitness..." "designed to encourage you to perform the exercises prescribed by your physician." "...to see your progress toward improving your inspiratory volume". "Deep breaths are necessary to reach and expand the small air sacs of your lungs".
Having said that. I don't have any clear idea how it might apply to competetive swimmers. Accompanying this VOLDYNE 500 is a predictive nomogram scaled from 1250 to 5000 mL. based on age and height in inches.
Any knowledgeable thoughts about connecting this to the "vital capacity" in this discussion?
