I bought such a device for my wife off Amazon two years ago. It makes it difficult to breathe. You use it for brief periods of time, only.

Yeah, I’ve been using one of these things almost every day since I was 8 or 9 years old. Mine was called a Bb trumpet but there are also French horns, trombones, and the real king of resistance-breathing devices, the tuba.
The tuba virtuoso of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Arnold Jacobs, actually built a resistance-breathing device for his students in the 1950’s.
I’ve never tested my BP when playing high notes on the trumpet, but it feels like it goes up quite a bit. Don’t know if this is helping or hurting but it’s still fun after all these years.

What's been your wife's experience?
I've read some articles and watched some videos on CO2 tolerance being important for increasing fitness (related to the more efficient movement of oxygen to muscles IIRC). It seems counterintuitive, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work.

I have sex as often as I can.
Seems to have the same effect...

A weird guy at my gym may have been wearing one of these things, looked like a gas mask.
Pre-Chinese virus hysteria. He seemed to think he was some sort of body builder.

resistance-breathing training
Hasn't this already been going on at a mass scale since 2020? More so in some jurisdictions than others.

"Resistance-breathing training involves breathing in and out of a small device..."
You want resistance breathing? Blow up a hot water bottle:
No, that's not me.
