Breathing mask and bodybuilding

Anyone here try a breathing mask ? If so what is your opinion ? Pros and cons ?

I have never tried one. But think about how important breathing and having enough oxygen in your body is for you to perform at maximum capacity. So I really can't see a good reason to use one IMO.
 
A study was done, no benefit.

Yeah, if we're talking about the Bane masks that people wear while running/training, this is exactly what I was going to post.

Assumed that was the case, but wasn't sure if we were talking CPAP/APAP or something else.
 
I was referring to the altitude training mask . I read some post that had positive reviews. Read some studies that showed no positive training results compared to athletes that train at altitude. The main positive I Read was that the user learns to breath from the diaphragm. Also read that the benefit was not worth the investment. Most of this info was from a cardio point of view. I was curious what if any opinion was from a bodybuilding point of use.
