I'vc been a runner (not competitively) for 14 years now. I first received my Airofit on June 16th, 2021. I use it everyday for 12 minutes, totaling 3 sessions a day I do. Tailoring to running using it for. First day I got it my vital accessible lung capacity was 6.5 liters. 6 liters is male average. I'm now at 9 liters. I'm running faster not even out of breath the slightest and running longer without gasping for air on speed runs on the treadmill. Also breathing regularly oxygen inhale/exhale feels more pure and I can absorb more oxygen as well as exhale more oxygen. This devices changes the game for any bodies lungs. Not just sports and working out.
@@runnermkp10 I start of with Presence session at beginner for two minutes to get my lungs warmed up. Then I do the two daily running app program sessions. Then I do the hyper strength session for ten minutes on expert level. I get perfect scores (95% or above). I have amazing lungs my doctor said three weeks ago hearing them with her stethoscope. You will start to see progress after four weeks of everyday use.
Professor, respiratory therapist, and pulmonay physiology/medicine specialist here! I might have missed it, but unless you went through specific pulmonary function testing (i.e., spirometry, body plethysmography, nitrogen washout, etc.), there is no way to truly have an accurate measure of lung capacity. For example, lung residual volume, a component of total lung capacity, can not be measured directly. Lung capacity in and of itself is not terribly trainable...you are not "making more alveoi," but rather perhaps recruiting lung units that might not be utilized prior to breathing exercises. A ~67% increase in total lung CAPACITY (there is no such thing as lung volume...a grouping of volmues is referred to as capacity) is highly unlikely due to "new lung tissues" or even in general. You probably have seen a moderate increase in the strength and functioning of the muscles of respiration, but I am highly suspect of the reported lung capacity measurement and increase.
Is the claim that lungs capacity increases as you describe or is the claim that the muscles that aid the lungs in diaphragmatic hypertrophy and increased inspiratory muscle strength? Specifically the diaphragm and intercostal muscles?
@Brian R Okay now that we've got that out of the way, what is your opinion of breathing trainers in and of themselves? Especially for people who have had lungs damaged by an illness?
I love this. I am an exercise scientist and 100% agree with you. Quick question though I tested it for 3 months as a Semi Pro Athlete and did notice quite a large improvement in my riding. And my "lung capacity" went from 4.4 to 7.4. Why do you think that is? Serious question.
I will be buying this. I'm assuming my lung capacity is very low, but I've been working to get back in shape, am down 15 lbs, my VO2 max continues to increase slowly and my overall fitness continues to increase, but am out of breath a lot so going to add this into the mix to up my game.
I just ordered the Pro - 30% off as it's Tour de France. As a lifelong asthmatic who did quite some free diving in my early years- I can certainly feel my respiratory fitness has declined now I'm in my mid 50s. I've also seen that my O2 saturation as measured by finger pulse oxymeter + more recently Apple Watch that it's kicking around the lower end of normal. I'll be curious to see how this device impacts my overall respiratory fitness.
yo viktor, super happy to find your channel! I was using an analog breather, but never really got into it. after seeing your review now you pushed me over the edge and I am definitely gonna star training using this! used your link, so hope that helps you. an extra 50 bucks off and i got the pro for 297, which is a really good deal. Can't wait to start using it! (even got express shipping on it). BTW, i see you also review a lot of other products like the ultrahuman ring. have you ever considered something like the eight sleep for more deep sleep? i just started using this yesterday, and i hope it really ups my performance!! you have an amazing mindset and can't wait to check out more of your content.
Good question! The device can add resistance to inhalation and exhalation (6 different levels). When paired with the app it will indicate what level of resistance you should have for training and testing, according to your level and training plan/goals 😊 Best of luck!
The device isn't suitable for ages under 12. If the athlete is between 12 and 14 years old, it must be used with parent supervision. That's what it said on the instruction manual of the airofit pro 2.0 that I received today.
@@ToNiiCxHD true but the device is specifically to make it difficult to breathe through mouth. If you wear it and breath through your nose, then you are basically working around it.
@@thuglaza4728I think it works fine for nose breathing. It’s more about expanding lung capacity and exercising the inhale/exhale muscles, right? Whether you breathe through your mouth or nose, your breathing muscles will likely tire out at the same pace. If it does work as they say it does then your lungs are just getting more efficient. The resistance is not for the air hole, but for the lungs.
You are correct also mouth breathing is terrible for you why would companies push this? The most effective way to breathe is thru your nose it’s hard at first with exercise but you will adapt and soon it will be way easier
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. This is how we know what love is Jesus Christ laid down His life for us
I am not against advertizement in general but this one is misleading. You can improve your lung function and make it more efficient but increasing the capacity...Not likely. I do not see a reason to mislead the audience.@@jerrygarcia7008
seriously 90£ for a piece of plastic ? even if it does the job, then i have a reviliutionary product for you!!! shoe laces to become a good runner!!!! all you need is just lace you running shoes and train hard every day
I did professional freediving training for several years(2 times each week) and this helped me even more

@@TheLifeOfaBichondid you use it while running or just wearing it normally?
@@anthonysnoozer You don't use it while running. You use it without doing any exercise. And the best results are with an empty stomach.
I'm asthmatic. I need to use inhaler daily. Would it help with my asthma?

@@andrewstuart8736 lol for the reasons mentioned by the comment probably.. greater recruitment and some strength gains.
7 to 11 is impressive! Best luck at the Olympics!

Are there any results?
Thanks for the review and the discount code! It is really helpful to hear how you've progressed.

this kinky toy is so damn useful when I powerlift, I rarely have moments where I almost faint from holding my breath.

So get same results for 80 dollars but can’t see progression? 80 it is
Do you need to pay a monthly subscription for the training plans afterwards?
i have the exact same question
Thank you for the discount code! Just put in an order. Can you do a video demonstrating correct form while using it? That is why I came to UA-cam.
So did this device help you?
Does it matter at what time in a day you use it? Before or after a workout ?
awesome review!!! just ordered mine
Did this device help you?
Does it work
Hi Viktor, looks interesting! Can you check again the coupon as it does not work?
What does it do? Restrict your oxygen or something?
That’s literally all I’m trying to understand about this; and it hasn’t been addressed.
Good question! The device can add resistance to inhalation and exhalation (6 different levels). When paired with the app it will indicate what level of resistance you should have for training and testing, according to your level and training plan/goals 😊 Best of luck!
How do you clean it?
Hello, thank you for your pros and cons and promotion, etc. etc. I was hoping you would show us how you use it. David from Brooklyn, NY
Fedt video mand
What is your coupon code? the link doesn't give me a discount.
What about nose breathing which is a key vasodilator and recommended for runners improving their aerobic fitness?
Thank you for this review. You mentioned you also work with a breathing coach. Can you say who the coach is and leave a link.
Hi, Viktor. Do you think that this device could be used by children athletes? 10 years, swimmer. Thanks.
The device isn't suitable for ages under 12. If the athlete is between 12 and 14 years old, it must be used with parent supervision. That's what it said on the instruction manual of the airofit pro 2.0 that I received today.
@@mathys166 thank you for taking the time to share that. Hopefully you are getting use out of it, I'm thinking about getting one soon
Worth it for someone with asthma?
I have asthma too. Think I'm gonna buy.
It’s said that these things help with asthma
these things are so overpriced. All they do is restrict breathing right? Just plug 1 nostril and breath...bam, restricted breathing by 50% lmao.
fuck the software
@@waynefilkins8394hardware*
Hi, thanks for a great informative video.
How long does the membership last when you buy the pro and what features do you lose when it’s finished?
How do you get the coupon for Aerofit ?
It’s automatically added when you use the link in the description 😊😊
No discount using the link 🥴
Same here the link does not work!
Does it work better than bas ruttens o2 trainer?
Would this help someone with asthma?
Since the last time i got sick, ive had a difficult time walking up stairs. Im looking for something to help
Did this device work better for you?
I've seen people say it has no effect really
I thought the total lung capacity is 6 Litres so how do you get 11 litres
Fix your mic brother, only plays on one side of earphones.
So this does help with speed skating?
Yes.
@@thorupviktor Great! I'm a competitive quad Speed skater for the USA!
I suppose it's not very useful if you mainly breathe through the nose though.
either way you are using your lungs or am i wrong?

@@thorupviktor im not seeing that discount applied. Is there a discount code perhaps?
@@thorupviktor nevermind there it goes! thanks!!
Use the friggen product!!
If you don't increase your audio, then this of no use. Hope you are listening.
I am :) Solved it so it's not only "single side" 🙂
just use a kettle bell on your stomach laying down, guys lol. wut the actual hell is this pricing.
these product devs desperately need a different job
Track my breading for 220e more 😂 no thanks ill try cheaper the same one
This review is invalid by default bc he used a breathing coach while using this bc not everyone can afford a coach smh
turn your mic up
Your videos should have subtitle translation option
Very poor audio
Shut up nerd
