The Idiocy of the "Altitude Training Mask"

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

One dude at the 24hour fitness I go to wears one. I always looked at him as the only real athlete up in that bitch :-)

Jack, I appreciate you.

Ask for his autograph and have him sign it as Sub Zero.

I knew that stuff was bullshit, didn't make any sense for me. The hyperbaric chambers (probably spelled that wrong) makes more sense but not a stupid mask. Its probably bad for cognitive abilities in other words it makes you stupider. Lack of oxygen and air to the brain = dead brain cells.

You'd have an easier time getting oxygen to your blood and creating more red blood cells (and probably look less stupid) by drinking beet juice.

Food science!

That sounds like it's worth the $80 right there!!

.....that is, if I ever get attacked by a boa constrictor.

Wanna improve lung function? Always breathe in through your nose when working out. Now gimme my $80

Hahhahaa thanks Jack, I didn't search in that way info about the mask, but know you give something else to think about it.

I guess that just for a fight or encounter in high altitude will be useful if you live away from those kind of levels, I will read more about it, thanks

For sure o2 trainer, will have the same motion right??

Great post
