O_LISpecial Forces Selection Rates have declined over recent years, partly due to reduced fitness rates of applications\nC_LIO_LIPostural changes incurred prior to the recruitment may contribute to compromised respiratory function, resulting in fatigue, overexertion, and Selection Course failure\nC_LIO_LIPerformance breathing training and respiratory muscle strengthening can reverse impaired respiratory function and optimize cardiopulmonary fitness.\nC_LIO_LIIn this study, a 6-week intervention program including performance breathing training improved fitness and performance of SF Selection Course participants.\nC_LIO_LIThe intervention program including performance breathing training increased the SF Selection Course pass rate from 0% to 30%, compared to prior years.\nC_LI

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
