Has it improved your upright row or cable kickback as well?

 I hear these altitude masks are doubly as effeceint when coupled with a medicine ball

Add some squats with a butt-plug to strech your hips properly when going down and fully activate and the cumuluts muscles.

I don't get it.  Restricting airflow to reduce oxygen availability isn't the same as breathing an unrestricted volume of air with a lower oxygen content.  What's this for?  Athletes who compete in events where they have to breathe through a bamboo shoot?

And these guys must sound like Darth Vader wheezing around.

You market that right and you could sell it to these clowns as the next big thing in pain threshold training.  "Free camo tshirt with every extruded testicle.  Kan U Handul It!"

What a gimmick that mask is. I also wonder about the health dangers. This is not training at altitude but depriving yourself of air.  You mean going for a run is to easy for you?  You can train forever with no fatigue so you need to deprive yourself of air to make it harder? Like Wes said, attention whores need to wear this with their toe shoes.  Then they get into their jacked up 4 x 4 that never leaves the pavement.

This is huge in military gyms right now. They use them for everything bi's...bench whatever. I got into an argument with some of the staff over building a Viking press off of the squat rack..because it was unsafe...yeah a bunch of dudes running around in masks and massive beats headphones oblivious to everything is so much more safe then what I'm doing.
