Complete respiratory training

Respiratory trainers built for athletic performance.

Unlike resistance-only trainers, Isocapnic BWB systems support sustained, high-volume training of both inhalation and exhalation. The calibrated rebreathing circuit recaptures a controlled portion of exhaled air while continuously admitting fresh air, helping maintain CO₂ and support normal oxygen saturation during demanding respiratory training.

What a respiratory trainer should train.

A respiratory trainer gives your breathing system a dedicated training stimulus. Depending on its design, it may challenge breathing strength, endurance, volume or control. Isocapnic BWB systems combine resistance with sustained, high-volume inhalation and exhalation training while limiting excessive CO₂ loss. Learn how respiratory muscle training works.

What is a respiratory trainer?

A respiratory trainer gives the muscles and movement patterns used for breathing a dedicated training stimulus. Different systems may focus on strength, endurance, breathing volume or control.

How is Isocapnic different from a resistance-only breathing trainer?

Unlike resistance-only trainers, the BWB combines resistance with sustained, high-volume training of both inhalation and exhalation. Its calibrated rebreathing circuit recaptures a controlled portion of exhaled air while admitting fresh air to help maintain CO₂ and support normal oxygen saturation.

Does the BWB train both inhalation and exhalation?

Yes. BWB sessions train the muscles used during both phases of breathing through guided, progressive programs in the included app.

Should I choose BWB Sport or BWB Mask?

BWB Sport is the portable mouthpiece system recommended for most athletes. BWB Mask supports nasal, oral and hands-free training, including movement-based sessions. Take the free assessment if you are unsure.
