Airofit strengthens your diaphragm so you can breathe more effectively during a high-paced activity, reducing heart rate and breathlessness.
Airofit increases your accessible lung capacity so you can inhale more air at once, reduce breathing rate and heart rate and preserve energy.
Delayed metabolic reflex prolongs the time you can perform at maximum power output, giving you a competitive edge during sprints.

Breath training is not only for the elite. 99% of all athletes (and all people in general) have never worked on their respiratory system in an isolated manner.
Breathing muscle training is beneficial for everyone across the board. Those looking for marginal performance gains will be able to fit Airofit in even the busiest of training schedules. Those wanting to feel more fit will see that the perception of exercise feels easier.

Breathing muscle strength is often a limiting factor in physical performance due to something called Metabolic Reflex.
This basic bodily function ensures additional blood flow to the respiratory muscles as they fatigue. Unfortunately for athletes, this blood flow is redirected from the limb muscles, therefore hindering performance.
During prolonged performance, this becomes an issue - but breathing muscles can and should be trained, therefore improving your endurance.

Inefficient breathing muscles waste energy that can be used by the rest of the body.
Breathing muscles respond to resistance training the same way as any other muscle group - by becoming stronger, faster and more efficient.
In addition, research shows that training your breathing muscles 4 minutes a day has the same effect on endurance athletes as 53-minute VO2 max workout twice a week!

Isolated respiratory training should be done separately from other physical activity, so you don’t compromise oxygen delivery to your muscles during exercise. Airofit is designed to be used only 5-10 minutes a day. This allows you to train whenever it fits you, including during off-season or throughout injury recovery. See how Airofit has helped OCR athlete and coach Justin Nucum.

Respiratory training can improve other aspects of life beyond physical activity.
Other benefits include:
• Improved quality of sleep
• Lowered stress levels
• Boosted immune system
• Managing asthma, COPD and long-Covid symptoms

“Increasing your lung capacity while you’re sat on the sofa? Now this is the kind of training we can get on board with.”
"It’s perfect for helping freedivers and surfers hold their breath longer, or giving endurance athletes a boost."
[In FR ] "Respiratory muscles develop like any other muscle group, and like them, they respond to resistance training."
"Many athletes notice an improvement in their primary sports in as little as three weeks."
"The app, which syncs to your device, gamifies the exercises so you can track your progress and push your limits."
"Getting out of breath is an instant limiter for any workout. But your respiratory muscles can be trained just like your guns."
