The condition of your respiratory muscles affects how well you can breathe. For people who are not fit or suffer from conditions such as COPD and asthma, breathing requires more effort and energy. Breathing training reduces this effort and reduces your oxygen requirements during exercise. POWERbreathe strength training basics - Just as you use weights to strengthen your arm muscles, you train with the POWERbreathe by inhaling against variable resistance to strengthen your breathing muscles. The diaphragm and rib muscles become stronger and more enduring. Strengthen your diaphragm - Breathing training with the POWERbreathe Plus Light Resistance (LW) focuses on strengthening your diaphragm and not your lungs. This is because your lungs are a pair of spongy, air-filled organs, not muscles, and therefore cannot be strengthened. Ideal for inactive people - Training the diaphragm with the POWERbreathe Plus (LW) benefits everyone. Whether you are fit or unfit, have a medical condition or not. This light resistance model is best suited for people who are new to breathing training, inactive or have breathing problems.

Wählen Sie eher ein Gerät mit geringerem Widerstandsbereich. Dies lässt sich besser einstellen, da die Schritte von Stufe zu Stufe kleiner sind. Beispiel: Ausdauersportler, 45 Jahre, 176 cm gross,74 kg schwer, trainiert im Bereich von 70 bis 85 cm H2O. Schwimmerin, 35 Jahre, 170 cm gross, 65 kg schwer, trainiert im Bereich 55 bis 70 cm H2O.
