 Breathless Legs? Consider Training Your Respiration
Compact, lightweight respiratory trainer for athletes that comes in two versions: GO for basic training and SMART for the more advanced, with a PC connection and software for sending training data to a computer. This makes it easy to monitor and keep track of your training on the computer. 

Respiratory Endurance Training improves performance and endurance capabilities in sports!
Respiratory muscles fatigue during sports activities. This leads to a decrease in performance. If the respiratory system is operating at full strength and capacity all the other muscles will perform at a higher efficiency. 

PictureRyder Hesjedal
The functions of vital organs such as the heart, the brain and respiration are maintained by the body as its top priority. Even under maximum stress, these organs are supplied with sufficient oxygen and energy. This happens at the expense of non-vital functions: Oxygen-supply to the legs and arms is reduced. The consequence is a substantial decrease in vitality and a quick build-up of hyperacidity due to H+ production. 

Endurance training of the respiratory muscles will remedy this problem. It reduces oxygen consumption by the breathing muscles. The oxygen supply is now available to the peripheral muscles. Legs and arms will fatigue later under stress and will produce less H+ at the same level of activity.

WHY USE THE SPIROTIGER?
There are other respiratory devices on the market but the SpiroTiger is the only one that exercises your respiratory muscles correctly.
The SpiroTiger will train your respiratory system to increase air volume in and out of the lungs, to increase O2 intake with increased air distribution to the whole lung, as well as deep expiration with avoiding air entrapment to get rid of the CO2.

Results of a Spirotiger Training Program
  • substantial increase in endurance and performance
  • noticeable increase in general physical fitness
  • improved peak performance under stress
  • shorter recovery times during and after competitions and training
  • improved endurance of the respiratory muscles
  • optimised oxygen supply to the skeletal muscles
  • faster breakdown of lactates during and after stress
  • improved coordination capability of the respiratory system under stress
  • strengthening of the neck, abdomen and back muscles
