Cyclist died

I see no exercise here.

Sitting around reading magazines with some tea and cookies in the lounge is hardly a comparative study of anything other than "doing nothing means my oxygen saturation doesn't change" . Go for a jog with those on.

Also, the droplet theory has yet to be meaningfully bunked.

Why is this still being discussed? It's making some of you look really stupid.

Perhaps that's the point....

The widow tells everyone the mask killed her husband, she is not blond but run a business and lots of people is going to hear why her husband died, and I would not argue with a woman whose husband died in May. As I don't know , and wants to know, I raised it here.

I nearly passed out the first time I went running in a mask, didnt even see it coming, just went all light headed from breathing in my own carbon dioxide.
Now when I run I use a buff instead but only pull it up if anyone is around, Im not going to be getting no stinkin' covid from the trees.

I call BS. I go running nearly every morning and never had an issue. The mask is a hellish pain to wear, but by no means a carbon monoxide suffocator.

You weren't breathing in your own carbon dioxide. Purely psychosomatic.

You were probably unfit from not running for a while

Some air that you breath out definitely stays on the mask. It is an actual barrier in front of your mouth, so we can't pretend it is nothing.

Someone more reliable doing the above experiment would be nice.

It can't store air. Sheesh.

Nobody said it "stores" air whatever you mean by that.

There is an amount of air between the mask and your face. Some of that is new some must be old. I highly doubt the transfer rate is 100% every time you breath.
 
Right, I asked the missus and she says it's not possible to collapse a lung from a mask. It could be due to something called bullae, popping causing the lung collapse, but that could happen at any time irrespective of wearing a mask or not.

Even a cloth mask / buff would last only so long until it becomes ridiculous to continue. About 2 hours in of heavy breathing and the cold weather making ones nose run, that mask becomes drenched with sweat and snot.

Good point. I never run or walk in the street with a mask and even the few times I wear it it is not pleasant.

Why it could be dangerous to exercise with a face mask on

A simple experiment suggests that we urgently need more research in this area.

Some actual science. Less oxygen basically mimics high altitude training.

Obviously having a barrier in front of your face affects the airflow.

Yeah I try wear it for as long as possible but it gets to a point where it's just not bearable, the more soaked the buff gets. It's also not possible to train at VO2 max when there is this increased restriction.

I think his reasoning was off but I've had it too. I put it down to lack of oxygen due to restrictive breathing by the mask. I'm not sure how you guys wear masks but when I wear mine normal breathing is fine, but after some strenuous activity I'm kinda sucking the mask in and blowing it away with every breath, I just can't get enough air in.
 
Went running earlier with my mask...had no problem breathing and didn't die. :unsure:
