    Turner Twins – Ross Turner –

    This POWERbreathe was perfect for Mt Elbrus
    The POWERbreathe allowed us to train in a way that was in-expensive, appropriate and the best in the market for mountaineering adventure (without actually training at altitude). It was easy enough to take travelling and use every day while allowing any level of cardiac fitness you wanted. This POWERbreathe was perfect for Mt Elbrus as the mountain had glacial rubble and ice – two very different terrains that affected the cardiac system in different ways. With more adventures coming that are not at altitude, we will carry on using the POWERbreathe as it is a great way to train the body in a very advantageous way so you can perform comfortably while working hard on expeditions.

Centimeters of Water is a unit used to measure pressure on a small scale. It refers to how much pressure is needed to move a 1cm column of water.

If required, there is a much more technical explanation available here:

There are no safety reasons for preventing young children (above 7 years of age) from using POWERbreathe. However, the following factors may affect their ability to use the device effectively: 

  • They must be able to fit the mouthpiece in their mouth. The POWERbreathe Plus mouthpiece is smaller and therefore more suited to children. 
  • They must be old enough to understand how to effectively perform the breathing exercises. 
  • They must have the motivation themselves or the parental encouragement to ensure that they continue to perform the exercises. 
  • They should only use POWERbreathe under the supervision of an adult.

Inspiratory muscle training has been most widely used in patients with COPD. IMT is particularly helpful in this patient group, as they have primary weakness of their inspiratory muscles. 

The following items come as standard with every POWERbreathe Plus purchase:
