Are these mma masks worth the money? I breathe through my mouth a lot. Would it help with that?

No but it would help you look like a retard

those masks are for training cardio by restricting oxygen and air flow
if you wear those lifting i will find you and bully you

Just put a plastic bag around your face

>I breathe through my mouth a lot. Would it help with that?
They're designed to restrict air flow, think about this logically for even one second.

What does restricting oxygen do?

Strengthens your heart. Makes circulatory system more efficient.

Is there science behind it?

I wanna hook one of these masks up to a hose and stick the other end in a braphog's brapper

he's a big guy

Nope.

Then why buy it?

Cause you're a good goy.

Cuz u wants 2 show da guiz at da gym you R 1 hardc0re man an wen dey see you wit mask they will b liek "OMG ur teh hardc0re!!!!"

fake news
this mask does NOTHING except make you look retarded.
athletes dont even train at high altitudes

Good for bane memes and not much else

Look man, short answer, don't waste your time and money. Just train harder.

Here's the deal user. Here's how it works.
If you go to colorado at a high elevation, and train running for a [an amount of time im unsure if], your body adapts to the lower oxygen level. It makes more of this cell or that cell, whatever. Lets say you were training a nice simple 1 mile run. When you return to sea level, you newly adapted body if now SUPER EFFICIENT at intaking and delivery oxygen where it needs to go, and since you are no longer at a high elevation and are in a higher a oxygen altitude, your new super breathing body is managing an absolutely wonderful amount of oxygen.
Think of it like this. Your deadlift 1RM of 405 is the end of your colorado training. Deadlifting 135 is now you running on the beach at 0 ft above sea level.

Now the thing with those masks is, you can't get the same effects of higher elevation just why wearing it during exercise. You have to LKVE in that envirnment for [some amount of time]. I do wonder if you bought one and wore it permanently for a period of days if it would make a difference. But I doubt it. I feel like there's probably a diffence between breathing normally with less oxygen then breathing just less air. That mask doesn't just restrict oxygen, it restricts air flow. I know there's a difference here, but I'm not a medfag.

I also wonder if there's an argument for them though considering they do restrict airflow; maybe they strengthen lungs? I doubt it. Regular unrestricted cardio is probably miles better for your lungs.

They are a meme user. They don't work (as they are intended). You'll look retarded.

great post

do you not feel in charge.. of your breathing, big guy?

Thank you user.
I tried my best. I know there's a lot of the science I don't know, but I know I got it.

Also user, the effects from your colorado training do wear off after a few days, they're not permanent.
Some people go to high elvation places like that to train for olympics, and then go to event 1 or 2 days before to have that edge.
