Breathing and Respiratory Muscle Training Method and System

摘要

A software operated method/system for both breathing training and respiratory muscle training in which a user inhales and exhales via a mouthpiece through a hand-held breathing chamber so that pressure, time and direction of air breathed through the chamber is automatically measured. The breathing results are automatically processed and displaying on a remote screen as a real-time interactive graphic representing such air pressure, time and direction. The users base-line is established and a menu of training choices including interactive games is displayed.

1. A software operated method for both breathing training and respiratory muscle training comprising the steps of:
providing a breathing chamber having a mouthpiece whereby a user can inhale and exhale air through the chamber; automatically measuring pressure, time and direction of air breathed through the chamber; automatically processing and displaying on a remote screen, a real-time interactive graphic representing such air pressure, time and direction; automatically displaying from memory a test breathing routine to a user, measuring and displaying the test results and, subsequently determining and displaying, for user selection, at least one of a stored series of appropriate personal training routines of different difficulties on the screen in accordance with a test result, whereby the user can monitor personal breathing performance on a real time basis and perform personal training routines.
