AnonIve been wantimg to try training with gas mask suppose to help with stamina . Give u wind
have a look at bas ruttens o2 trainer. its like a mouth guard with an airway inwhich you can put different sized mesh restrictors into depending on your level of fitness. apparently you can do a pretty serious workout just watching tv.
anything by bas rutten is worth a look, bas is the man!
Anonawesome bro thnks
if you are low on cash, you can use a snorkel, cut it in length and vary the diameter with plastic or metal straps (found that tip years ago in a Men's Health, LOL)
sgtstedankoThat would be the best complement2your training, IMHO... You want something really fun!? Get the mask, & do the weighted ruck runs. & Pushups, etc, etc, etc, from my best basics post ;) it'll tear you (Anyone) a new one!
If I were going to buy a civi1, I'd def buy the Israeli one. Prob the best quality, just incase
AnonThey make training ones . I wouldnt use real one unless I really needed it
sgtstedankoWell, brother. It wouldn't be a bad idea :/ Kmi
love it ! 3 x a week treadmil steep incline really increases endurence for cardio my legs got huge from this alone... also vest pull ups and push ups .... youll at least double the amount you can do in a month
se the guys below point tho with the joints and what not, im 25 so i dont feel it yet
sgtstedankoI like weight. & run/pushups w/it, all the time. Have for about a decade : )
Be careful...
It's something that you have to work your way up to. It's a common source of injury of those new to gear, or not used to the increases across the board... Imho, there's absolutely no better workout, than weighted ruck runs. . But, it's not something you can just do, without preparation... No matter what, Start very light (like@5pounds) continue adding weight every other or so. If you have any preexisting tendon, or joint injuries, etc. I'd strongly advise against it.
Not the best idea for your knees/back/joints. Weight strapped to your body doesn't in any way relate to weight within your body however I'm sure if you use it properly it could work to increase speed and endurance.....at 33 years old im a bit weary of anything like this and I'm already suffering from a shitty wrist injury.
