This morning at the gym a few people wore elevation training masks for a greater challenge. Apparently these masks help the user build endurance, enhance lung capacity, and improve overall performance. You can adjust various settings in order to simulate being anywhere from 3,000-18,000 feet above sea level.
What’s funny is that they look like gas masks. It’s just an odd thing to see!! But I got a kick out of it and if fitness freaks at my gym are using them, I want in too!!
I’m not saying I could function well (or at all) with one during a workout yet, but I could wear one around the house to begin getting acclimated. I can just imagine someone ringing my doorbell and then the look on their face when I answer with the mask on!
Better yet, what if I wear it at work while at my desk?? Or driving in my car?? Oh the looks I would get! [You should see the huge grin on my face as I seriously consider doing this….]
Hmmm…. Why yes, I do believe I should order my mask today….
