How To Use & Disclaimers
How do I use the HexEasy Breathing Trainer?
Step 1: Prepare Your Trainer Before you begin, ensure that your air resistance trainer is clean. Insert the mouthpiece in your mouth with the engraved word “top” at the base of the mouthpiece facing up. Bite down the inner sides of the mouthpiece to hold it in place.
Step 2: Proper Breathing Technique Stand or sit comfortably in an upright position maintaining good posture, or use as a part of your workout routine. Adjust the resistance level to your desired level of breathing resistance (make it challenging, but not uncomfortable). Inhale deeply through the mouthpiece until you can’t anymore, and then exhale through the mouthpiece until you’re almost out of breath. Focus on filling your lungs completely with air. This action engages your inspiratory muscles.
Step 3: Controlled Exhalation Remove the unit from your mouth and breathe normally until you catch your breath. Then repeat the above exercise 10 times to complete one set. Do 2 to 4 sets per day, preferably before any meals.
WARNING: the breathing should be challenging, but not uncomfortable and should not produce adverse effects. If you feel any dizziness, headache, or breathlessness, try a lower resistance level. Always err on the side of caution.
