I'm no doctor, so I'm only writing this as someone with breathing problems.

Inhaling is mostly a passive function. So when you use this device, the muscles involved in inhaling are coaxed into being active. I can feel them working differently than they usually do, and it's quite a workout!

It's analogous to the benefit that a really bulked-up football player gets when he stretches. Most of the time he's contracting his muscles, but it's important that he lengthen them, too. In yoga, when you do any posture, you almost always follow up with a complementary position -- a counterposture. In both activities, maintaining flexibility doesn't only enhance your ability; it also helps prevent injury.

When I use this device, I can feel muscles that I don't usually feel, and they're getting stronger. It increases my stamina and helps me prevent the symptoms that usually accompany strenuous activity. It works beautifully for me.

Only after a bout with a recent lung infection was I informed that I have COPD. The doctor said that I have lost my "elasticity" in my lungs. Yes and unfortunately I am a life long smoker, and have only recently been very short of breath. I have cut back on smoking but I also want to strengthen my lungs. After much research did I purchase this product. I LOVE IT! I have noticed a huge difference in my breathing since doing the morning and evening exercises. Matter of fact, doing just one round of the 25 breaths using this unit has helped me take a deeper breath than I have in years. Do yourself a favor if you want to strengthen your lungs for whatever reason and buy this.

My wife is a weak breather when she sleeps, and she also has obstructive sleep apnea. When she would drop off to sleep (and she would many, many times at night) her air pathway would close and her breathing was too weak to pass the obstruction. Because of this situation, for a number of years she has been using a by-pap machine to keep her air way open.
Now enters this wonderful product into the picture! When I saw it for the first time, a light bulb went off in my head. She now uses the ultrabreathe every day and sleeps through the night without the by-pap.
We are saying good bye to expensive high-tech sleep studies and breathing equipment. Ultrabreathe may not cause everyone to achieve the result my wife has had, but it is well worth the effort and small expense to find out!

I have been using the Ultrabreathe for around a month.I use it for warmups before workouts,and I also use it as part of my warmups for vocals.It is good product,and the best of all it is so convenient that you can take it anywheres,plus you can't beat the price.I highly recommended this product if you workout daily and if you sing for living or for fun,pretty good tool for warmups,right before your actives.Also great if you have respiratory health problems.

My doctor suggested a device something like this to help improve my breathing. My understanding of my symptoms are that basically my breathing was too shallow and needed to be improved. After a little searching around I purchased the Ultrabreathe based on price and features. It is simple and easy to understand with the main control being an adjustment to increase or decrease the effort required to take a breath. This is important because if you are a shallow breather you will be surprised at how little lung power you are using and need to work up to the more strenuous levels. Think of it as barbells for your lungs.

Note: There are some very misleading and confusing reviews for this product that clearly were submitted by somebody with no knowledge of the product or it's purpose. If you have been told by a healthcare provider that you need to improve your breathing try the Ultrabreathe. It has helped me!

Excellent product. Works as advertised. As a competitive bicyclist it helped me get up from an average of 76 rpm cadence to 85 inj one month. It is way overpriced however and there are other copies on the internet $15 cheaper and with free shipping.

It's kind of funny. After huffing and puffing on this thing I can feel muscular aches in places that I would feel when I used to run. I unfortunately had to stop due to knee and back problems. I figure with this thing and losing a few pounds I should be able start back running soon!! I am so excited. The results of this product are so encouraging.

I'm amazed that this is working, but it is. It's only been a couple of weeks, and already my breathing muscles (which, who knew I had?) are stronger. Two thumbs up, or should I say lungs up? Har har!

I got my Ultrabreathe a few weeks ago and started using it as part of training for the NY marathon. I found it easy to use. I could feel that my breathing muscles were working harder. After a few times, I learned to breath out slower so I wouldn't build up too much oxygen from the deep inhaling. My only complaint is that saliva drips out of the device. Not a big problem, but I wish it had some kind of containment system.

I use if for warming up for sporting events - very small, durable and very effective for breathing exercises. However, seems quite overpriced for a few pieces of plastic.
