Swimming

Your technique is very important when there is a swimming competition. But there is an important factor that is complimentary to your technique: breathing. Restricting your breathing is necessary while you still need to breathe enough to keep your lactate levels low. If these are not balanced, fatigue will set in faster throwing off your rhythm, technique and overall, your time.

PowerLung will give you the balance you need with respiratory muscle training. Independent studies have proven that training the respiratory muscles with PowerLung will reduce the relative work of breathing and lower lactate levels. Increased strength and endurance in your breathing will help reduce the physical and mental stress your body endures whether it is for competitive swimming workouts or competition. PowerLung gives you the benefit to inhale more in a short amount of time and exhale more powerfully at the power points in your strokes.

A study at the University of Toronto with various national swimmers showed that training with PowerLung improved respiratory muscle critical power more than swim training alone. It is important for swimmers that respiratory muscle training be included in their regime for any form of swimming competition or workout.v>
