The Medic Plus can be paired with the POWERbreathe Smart Adaptor, for real-time visual breathing training guidance and feedback via the ActiBreathe® App.
Dr Sabrina Brar says
Your physical lung size is determined by the blueprint in your DNA and set in stone by the time you reach adulthood. However, the respiratory muscles (including the diaphragm and intercostals) can be trained, so your lungs become stronger and more resistant to fatigue with time and you can use more of your existing lung volume to breathe more efficiently.
