Using the BreathCore™ Trainer

  • The patented dual-resistance system provides resistance during both pulling and pushing—training breath and core together for faster, deeper results.

  • Yes! The Floater is designed to shift slightly. It helps the Trainer stay responsive and adapt to your movement and position.

  • Up to about 3.5 feet. Pulling beyond that and holding the band in a stretched position may stretch it out. Keep your movements steady and within range for best results.

  • Yes. The Trainer is lightweight, compact, and easy to carry—ideal for home, studio, or on-the-go use.

  • Just a few minutes a day is enough to feel results. Most users start with 1–2 short sessions daily.

Training & Breathing Benefits

  • It strengthens both inhalation and exhalation muscles—including the diaphragm and deep core—improving lung capacity, breath control, and respiratory efficiency.

  • It builds coordination between breath, movement, and posture—essential for athletes, performers, and anyone seeking greater focus and stamina.

  • Primarily the diaphragm, intercostals, transverse abdominis, pelvic floor, and postural stabilizers. It also engages shoulders and back and legs depending on the movement.

  • We carefully tested a range of resistance strengths—both for pulling (inhale) and pushing (exhale)—with people of different sizes, fitness levels, and experience. Our goal was to find a strength that feels challenging but accessible for the widest range of users.

Safety & Suitability

  • The Trainer is designed for a wide range of users. If you are pregnant, recovering from injury, or managing a medical condition, consult your healthcare provider first.

  • Yes, the BreathCore Trainer is designed to be accessible for all levels.

    Start slowly and use smaller movement. Because resistance increases the farther you pull or push, even small movements can be highly effective in helping you build strength and control at your own pace.
