POWERbreathe in the Czech Republic, Truconnexion, are delighted to report that their POWERbreathe sponsored athlete, Cyclocross rider Martin Bina won the final World Cup race in Hoogerheide, Netherlands.

It was Martin’s first world cup victory and second podium after his third place in 2008…and this after he had to take a two-year break because of knee surgery. POWERbreathe became his essential training tool during his recovery, and he’s been using it since 2011.

Martin Bina said, "POWERbreathe is a great help."

We’ve translated Martin’s comments from Czech, but you can see the original on Trueconnexion’s website...

Isn’t this sun and warmth a lovely welcome, it definitely gives you a boost in energy, makes you more motivated and wanting to achieve more. I have to confess that when it was cold and wet I did let my POWERbreathe routine slip a bit but am pleased to report in that things are back…plus a bit more; a few press ups in the morning and have started going on the exercise bike - only 10 mins today but aim to build it to 20mins a day.

My summer plans are going well and I didn’t overdo things when I had a few days away to see some friends and ex-colleagues. My school friend reunion has been put back to Sept/Oct, the date...

I’m in my 2nd week of rebuilding and things are looking up. It’s always good to know what your own body needs, so you don’t get despondent. I have even started making plans for May, one of them being a luncheon with some of my ex-colleagues and friends which I had to miss out on last year as I had over done things.

Like I said last week, I am quite impressed with my POWERbreathe results. I am making steady progress every week and feel better and stronger for it. I don’t do excessive training but what I do is working for me. Long may the progress continue.

As of this week I am reducing my journals to once a month,...

Having built myself up for Easter and our family guest over for the weekend, I do feel a bit drained now and have given myself 3 weeks rest before any more exertions.

I know it sounds a bit pathetic but it is what my body needs. At least my faithful POWERbreathe doesn’t take too much effort. I will share with you my results next week; I think you will be impressed, I am!

My MS (Multiple Sclerosis) symptoms seem to be declining too. A change in my eating habits and general routine is paying off but more needs to be done. I must learn not to overdo things. Like I said I am slowly learning.

I have to correct my mile estimation from last week, it was actually more like ½ mile but still very impressive for me.

My overall POWERbreathe breathing results dipped slightly this month, the reason being I developed a real stinker of a head cold, which has set me back a bit. But, the beauty of the POWERbreathe is I know that I can get back on stream again fairly quickly and without absolutely exhausting myself. So onwards and upwards and I look forward to next month’s results showing me back on track. That’s why I like the POWERbreathe K3 - you can constantly measure...

You would be so impressed with what POWERbreathe has done for me… A friend came round on Friday and we decided to go for a walk - and it wasn’t short: just under a mile with much chatting as we went. The good news is I wasn’t out of breath at all! Having started using my POWERbreathe in August 2010, I really haven’t looked back.

I do suffer from poor balance, tremors and fatigue with my MS (multiple sclerosis), but the POWERbreathe has helped eliminate another potential symptom i.e. being out of breath all the time.

Thank you POWERbreathe!

It’s been a quiet week on the exercise front this week, but that’s mainly because I had guests for two days and some paperwork that needed to be done.  It’s funny how a change of routine just throws everything up in the air. I need to get back on stream again PDQ with my Pilates and POWERbreathe.

However, it has done me a favour in a way, as I have decided not to see my friend in Italy until September/October, and that’s if I am feeling fit.  As you can tell from my previous blog posts,  because of Multiple Sclerosis I’m not good with stress or changes to my routine, but I  am slowly learning and recognising when I need to take...

It's been a better week this week, with no dull pins and needles progressing above my ankles. So I’m going to continue on with my strategy.

When you go through times of fatigue and lack of energy, you appreciate even more what the POWERbreathe is giving you. Yes, I do my Pilates and core stability exercises but these are not really giving my lungs a workout.  I can’t really run because of the lack of balance I have as a result of Multiple Sclerosis, and I can only walk short distances, hence the importance of the POWERbreathe, and why I will never give it up. I remember very well those days before POWERbreathe, when I felt severely unfit and...

Another quiet week but according to my previous recent recovery times I have one more week to go. Even today, I am starting to feel more optimistic and energised.

Don’t laugh too much but I may make a start on creating my Christmas cards for 2011 next week. I have to be well planned to avoid any unnecessary stress or panic, which isn’t good for my health. I send out about 140. I have a design planned in my brain; I just need to try it out on paper. In a bizarre way the POWERbreathe will aid me... All will be revealed next week, that’s if it works out OK.
