What type of face mask is the most breathable?
If you’re looking for a really breathable face mask then generally you’ll want a mask with only a few layers. Of course the point of face masks is to lower the spread of droplets, and to achieve this most face masks are made of at least three layers. We recommend checking out masks made from cotton to increase breathability, or else check out surgical/disposable masks that tend to be made from thinner layers than most reusable masks.
Is it safe to exercise with a face mask on?
Dr Lindsay Bottoms is a Reader in Exercise and Health Physiology at the University of Hertfordshire. She is also currently the Deputy Head of the Centre for Research in Psychology and Sports Science.
Exercise invariably leads to faster and harder breaths, so wearing a mask during exercise places a further strain on airflow. At low to moderate-intensity exercise, effort will feel slightly harder than normal with a mask, but you can still walk comfortably. The challenge appears to be more during heavy exercise (say, rugby or football) taking in air at rates of about 40-100 litres per minute.”
So really it does depend on your training style. We recommend consulting your doctor, especially if you have any underlying health conditions that could further inhibit performance.
How do you wash a reusable face mask?
Exercising in a face mask means you’re going to need to wash it a lot sooner than if you weren’t exercising. To find the best way to do so, we recommend checking the product description on the site you bought it from. You should also consider the following tips:
- Handwash your mask with soap in the warmest appropriate water setting for cloth.
- Lay the mask out to air dry and let it dry completely before reusing.
- Wash your hands before and after handling your mask.
- Wash your mask after each wear.
