How do Breathing Exercises help?
Respiratory muscle training can exercise and increase lungs‘ ability to expand, improve the pulmonary ventilation function (FEV1 and FEV1/FVC%) and oxygenation function (blood oxygen partial pressure and blood oxygen saturation), improve alveolar ventilation, and reduce the energy consumption during breathing. Through breathing training, respiratory muscular endurance and strength can be improved. Lung volume increases by 250-300ml for every 1 cm lowering of diaphragm muscle.
Who will benefit from breathing training?
People with and without respiratory conditions will benefit from breathing training, as it help improve the endurance and strength of respiratory muscles, increase vital capacity and slow lung aging.

What is OPUMP Breathing Trainer?
OPUMP Breathing Trainer is a natural solution for better breathing, which measures your lung capacity with cutting-edge MEMS thermal hot film sensor and helps you train respiratory muscles with air flow resistance design. Besides, OPUMP App provides different breathing exercises courses and games to let your training more effective and enjoyable. Your IVC data and training results can be tracked in OPUMP App.
Why should I use OPUMP Breathing Trainer?
OPUMP Breathing Trainer is ideal for anyone looking to enhance their respiratory health, including those with breathing issues, singers, athletes, or individuals under stress. It offers insights into your lung capacity, allowing for goal setting and tailored training. Training with OPUMP can increase lung capacity, enhance physical performance and cardio endurance, and promote overall balance.
How does OPUMP Breathing Trainer work?
Withing cutting-edge technology and smart App, OPUMP provide a full solution for you to know breath, train breath and control breath. Details as below:
-OPUMP utilizes the cutting-edge MEMS thermal film flow sensor to detect inspiratory flow rate and volume in real-time, and give you the accurate IVC (Inspiratory Vital Capacity). IVC will be displayed on the product directly with LED lights, and can be tracked in the App.
-With air flow resistance design, OPUMP add resistance to your breathing muscles while your breath in and out with OPUMP. Like other skeletal muscles, respiratory muscles undergo adaptation in response to stimuli overload during exercise training, thus resulting in significant increases of strength and endurance.
-OPUMP App provides sessions for different purposes, including IVC testing, breathing exercises, enjoyable games, data record and process tracking.
How often should I use OPUMP Breathing Trainer?
We recommend that you start training 2x5 minutes every day. We have found that 2x10 minutes per day is the optimal training schedule, but you should gradually work your way up to it. You will see results within a couple of weeks.
Your breathing muscles are just another muscle group. You should always 'listen' to your body. If the training gets too intense, take a break.
When do I use OPUMP Breathing Trainer?
You can use OPUMP in any free moment – after a gym session, at work, before bed or whatever suits you best.
Is there an age limit for using OPUMP Breathing Trainer?
There is no age limitation to using OPUMP Breathing Trainer. However, the mobile app does not let you register if you are under 13. This is because your results are measured compared to an average of an individual the same age - there is simply no quantitative respiratory data on children below 13. That being said, you can still use OPUMP Breathing Trainer and all its features if you're younger, but the data will be compared to a 13-year-old.
If you are under 15, we strongly advise training with adult supervision.
