The LungBoost uses mathematical equations to score your exercises.
The Endurance Scores take into account BOTH the average amount
of seconds inhaled and exhaled AND the number of times you
exercised. When you rst begin and the exercises are easy, your
scores go up faster. But as you improve, it becomes more dicult to
get a better score. As you progress, you have to work harder.
The Strength Scores take into account BOTH the average ball height
inhaled and exhaled AND the number of times you exercised. When
you rst begin and the exercises are easy, your scores go up faster.
But as you improve, it becomes more dicult to get a better score.
As you progress, you have to work harder.
