Test your lung capacity

[odanny]

I have no idea if any of this has any real accuracy, but see if you can make it to 10.

when i was a FF, we had to breath into this 'machine' to determine if we were SCBA qualified.......i forget what they called it, sorry.... ~S~

They seem alright to me.

11. Must have been all the marathon running.

I wonder how Sydney Sweeney's lungs would measure up.

Sorry.

I found it fairly easy to make it to 9, and a bit of a struggle to get to 10, but doable.

Ann incentive spirometer is what we give patients to strength the lungs and prevent pneumonia during recovery

How high/long you can raise the disc/ball of a a good indicator of your lung strength

I have one from my time in a hospital, the exact same one as this. I wasn't even in there for anything related to breathing but saw it and asked if I could have it.

 

[odanny]

No problem.

Is that in milliliters? I thought lung capacity was like 6 liters (6000 ml)?

Made it to 10, then one more circle until the clip stopped. Not bad for over 71 and a smoker. But, always had good lung capacity and breathing discipline, probably from the Army and all that running, and staying in shape for the PT Tests.

Sorry.

She looks like she has great lungs, to me.

I saw three specialists and had nine tests this summer and found out my lungs work well enough despite the fact I've smoked for fifty years.
