Hi, I am very interested in raising my CO2 tolerance levels but I am not sure what the easiest/best way to go about it is. My body feels tense most of the time, I have a hard time focusing and I seem to get out of breath quite easily during exercise despite having no medical conditions and blood tests coming back normal, also I am a good weight for my height. I have tried Buteyko breathing but found it very difficult, time consuming and tedious I have tried using the Frolov device but found it very irritating and barely saw any results. I have looked online and apart from exercising or using the Buteyko method I have found very little information on this. The archives on this forum are vast and hard to navigate for a newbie.
I purchased a training mask as I read it helps you to inhale more dead volume resulting in breathing back in lost CO2 however searching on this forum indicated that this may not be an effective means of raising CO2. I would like to know what are the most effective ways to raise CO2 levels in the body, something that doesn't involve feeling like I am suffocating or having to dedicate two hours a day to consciously controlling how I breathe. In short something practical to use in every day life. The easiest thing I have found is blocking the nostril that is most open and breathing only through the partially blocked nostril, although I have no idea if this is actually raising the co2 tolerance levels in my body. Thanks
