Training Mask 2.0 has been a work in progress for over 2 years. We have asked our customers of Training Mask 1.0 to give us their feedback and what they would want to see in 2.0. With great feedback from test marketing and direct responses we have made Training Mask 2.0 smaller, lighter and more comfortable. Training Mask 2.0 gives the end user a redesigned look and feel along with the resistance levels that they desire.
Elevation Training Mask mimics the effects of High Altitude Training. When elite athletes want to improve their performance they go to high altitude levels to train. When they come back to sea level they perform much stronger, faster, and have increased endurance.
Training Mask 2.0 makes your work out more efficient allowing you to take your work out from 60 minutes to 20 minutes. From the average daily walker to the marathon runner, Training Mask 2.0 appeals to every athlete who wants to improve their overall health and performance.
We have changed the look!
It started with the first version made from an Israeli civilian gas mask and has been completely revamped and remolded into Training Mask 2.0. We have gotten away from the eye pieces, hardened straps, and overall gas mask look. With reconstruction of an entirely new mask mold, and neoprene that is stretched over the rubber resistance mask, and caps give Training Mask 2.0 a smooth, sleek look and comfortable feel.
Training Mask 2.0 is held on the face with a comfortable neoprene strap that over lays the air tight silicone piece that rests against the face. The neoprene strap is held onto the mask by 3 "Resistance caps". The resistance caps make for a nice snug fit against the neoprene and hold the neoprene in place acting as a "post" against the silicone that rests on your face.
Training Mask 2.0 is a less aggressive looking approach to working out while still getting the aggressive workout that one desires. With Training Mask 2.0 you do not have claustrophobia like feeling nor will you have to worry about vision problems while training. Our snap and go resistance nose pieces are truly revolutionary as it makes the ease of use that much easier.
The science behind the mask!
After extensive research and clinical testing from the UNIVERSITY OF NAIT the Training Mask 2.0 has made remarkable advancement in the fitness and training industry. Training Mask 2.0 takes all the amazing "Diaphragm Resistance Technology" from Training Mask 1.0 and compiles it into a less obtrusive, amazingly comfortable silicone mask that fits over the nose and mouth.
Altitude resistance and Training Mask 2.0?
There are various "Resistance Breathing" elevations with Training Mask 2.0. These "Breathing Resistances" are simulated resistances that simulate "maching" how hard it would actually be to breath in (3,000 | 6,000ft | 9,000ft | 15,000ft | 18,000 Ft. in "ALTITUDE RESISTANCES". Training Mask 2.0 does not "change on the o2 molecular level" however your body does make adaptations for this "Simulation" to be considered "Altitude Training" also known as the "BOHR EFFECT".
Training Mask 2.0 is completely washable!
We have constructed the Training Mask 2.0 out of high grade neoprene as well as high quality printing that is able to with stand outdoor training, rain or shine, or any other weather condition that may have been keeping you away from training at your peak performance.
Why Choose Training Mask 2.0?

I got this as a gift. I wanted it for training during Muay Thai and Karate. You cannot use it during Muay Thai or Karate and it is likely that you cannot use it during Boxing. Often your gloves will bump it. When you breath, the seal often breaks on the exhale. Moisture builds and is very uncomfortable around your mouth and nose. I cannot imagine anyone having a head that would fit this item perfectly. I was given a medium, I fell right in the middle of the sizing chart. It is too loose if I don't make it as tight as it will go, and as tight as it will go is still loose. It tugs down on my ears and hurts after awhile.
In the end, it is a LOT of trouble and I spend more time trying to fix/thinking about the mask than I do focusing on my training.
NOT - WORTH - IT.
The velcro is almost worn out and I have only worn it ten times or so.
This thing definately makes you work for your air. I can feel my intercostals working to help me breathe with each breathe during bag work. Pluse i feel like Bane when i wear the mask so it pumps me up a bit haha

I currently use this Training Mask 2.0 and love it , this thing has brought my training from going 3 , 3 min rounds to going 5 5min rounds without having to stop , i feel great with it on and even better after i get done training with it
I have only had this mask for a couple weeks now and right off the bat I thought it was great. I love it I have already recommended it all of my friends. I used to use a Promask to help condition my lungs but it was always so uncomfortable and only helped out a little. The only thing I don't like about this is a lot of moisture gets trapped in it when you use it, I expected a little bit but it is a lot more than I expected. But overall amazing product would buy again if I had to.
conforms to face well but slides sometimes once you start sweating. 10x more comfortable than the original. i like how vision is open but headphones dont stay in with the mask on. price is high but a good training tool.

The product is designed based on lung capacity of a full grown adult. The age restriction is because under 18 may still be growing and the lung capacity is different.

Q:
The size table for the mask. it only goes by weight, is there a way to measure which 1 to buy besides how much u weigh?
I'm 17 about to be 18 in a month does this mask help your wind and lung capacity go up or what's the purpose of it ? And can it be used outside of the gym ?
The Elevation Training Mask 2.0 helps you take deeper breaths as you inhale. The material on the mask requires you to take a fuller breath in order to get the right amount of oxygen into your blood stream. As a result of the deeper breaths, you increase your lung capacity and that improves your stamina and endurance. It's the same principle used by athletes who train in high altitudes so that they have more endurance when they're competing at the lower altitudes. You can use the mask anywhere you are training -- home, gym, or outside. You can hand wash the mask, so it's safe to use it in the rain too.
