How to properly use an elevation mask?

[QQQQQQQ]

Ive had one for a while, but haven't been too sure how to incorporate it into training.

Should i just wear it while i do my usual training? I think id gass out too quickly so im not sure how itd be that effective.

Any tips or advice?

I have no idea.

I do know, however, that if I saw someone running down the street wearing one of those things, I'd call Homeland Security to report possible ********* activity.

wats up man, do you find the elevation mask has helped u out alot? How do you use it?

It helped but I definitely had to gradually up the intensity. That was hard to do because I like going full throttle from the start and I couldnt do that with this so I had the lowest setting possible and worked hard and gradually increased it. It didnt work for my friend who also competes but thats because he's lackadaisical in training even though hes talented. While on the other hand I definitely saw a difference because I would train and give 100% to everything I did so when I competed and fought completely relaxed as opposed to my training, my stamina doubled I felt.

Edit: just felt I had to point out this is how I felt. And how my friend didnt adjust to it well be it him personally or his work ethic. But I would like to say .....what works for some might not work for others.

Do elevation training masks even work? I've read a bunch of sites and everything I read is mixed. Sites like tout the benefits, but then other more legit sites like basically claim they don't work at all. Some people swear by them, but I'm pretty skeptical. Any opinions/advice on these?

I think mine has helped me massively, I've recommended to friends who are less fit to wear the mask in between sets of explosive or power training to help increase their fitness. I work as a personal trainer/martial arts trainer, so I'm lucky that I spend a lot of time in the gym, but on days when I'm busy I find sets of stair sprints/explosive pull-ups/cleans/deadlifts which can be completed in 20/30 minutes while wearing the mask at 9000 ft keeps me at the top of my game
