Conditions

  • Aging

Interventions

DEVICE

a conical positive expiratory pressure device

The CPEP device will be connected to respiratory transducer for generating positive expiratory pressure with therapeutic rang (5 to 20 cm H2O).

OTHER

Constant work load cycling test

Participants will per form constant work load cycling test until symptom limit with 50 to 60 rpm. The termination criteria include 1. sever breathlessness (\>5 /10 score of modified Borg scale) 2. leg fatigue (can not maintain speed between 50 to 60 rpm) 3. Hear rate (HR) \>80 % age-predicted maximum HR 4. Exercise time up to 10 minutes 5. Other symptom that stated by American thoracic Society(2002)
