Respiratory muscles
fatigue during sports activities. This leads to a
decrease in performance. Studies by Prof. U.
Boutellier, sports physiologist at the Federal
Institute of Technology (ETHZ) and the University of
Zurich, prove this in a most impressive manner.
In the past, it was
assumed that physical endurance and performance were
primarily limited by the heart and the
cardiovascular system; in part also by the muscular
system. This is why it was believed that the
respiratory system did not impair the functional
capacity since it was assumed that it had sufficient
reserves.
The targeted
endurance training of the respiratory muscles,
however, does substantially increase physical
endurance, resulting in a relevant increase of
functional capacity. This is true both for top
athletes as well as popular sports.
It is due to this
fact that the SpiroTiger® has effectively and
sustainably convinced more than 1000 users in less
than a year's time. |
