Airofit
Respiratory Muscle Training (RMT) is a method used by professionals across healthcare, physiotherapy, and elite sports to strengthen the lungs and breathing system.
Every breath requires coordinated work of many muscles. When all these are strong and efficient, your breathing system is well-oiled.
With simple inhale and exhale exercises through differing resistance levels, RMT trains your diaphragm, abs, intercostals and accessory muscles.
Think of respiratory muscle training as a workout for your breathing muscles, much like lifting weights strengthens your arms or legs by adding resistance. RMT follows the same principle.
When you want to build muscle, you introduce resistance to challenge your body. As your respiratory strength improves, you can gradually increase the resistance, just as you would with weight training.
Research shows that to see and measure results, respiratory muscle training should be done consistently for 5–10 minutes a day over a period of 4–6 weeks. Once you reach your peak performance, train every other day to preserve muscle strength.

Students at Manchester Metropolitan University significantly increased their exercise efficiency and respiratory strength in just 4 weeks after training with Airofit.

A study in Applied Sciences showed that just 4 weeks of Airofit training can make a huge difference in sleep quality and cognitive function*.
Prefer Airofit over

Prefer Airofit over
other RMT devices
Patients undergoing a study at Palacký University Olomouc, preferred Airofit over other rehabilitation protocols due to the ease of use in their journey to recover from lung transplantation*.
No significant difference between measurement with Airofit and MicroRPM.
Researchers at the University of Thessaly compared the medically approved and widely utilised MicroRPM device to the Airofit training system.
*While the Airofit breathing trainer might assist with respiratory issues, Airofit is not a medical device nor made for treating illness.
