Pneuma PowerLite Performance Tape

The more you can lean on nasal breathing, rather than mouth breathing, in training and racing the better. However, everything gets harder before it gets easier. Your body isn't used to it. The nasal valve — the narrowest point inside your nostril — creates resistance, and that resistance makes your brain want to bail back to mouth breathing before the benefits ever kick in.

That's exactly where a nasal strip earns its place. Open the passages mechanically, reduce the resistance, and suddenly nasal breathing at threshold feels possible instead of punishing. The habit builds faster. The adaptation sticks.

Pneuma PowerLite Performance Tape is a 2-bar organic silk nasal strip engineered for daily training — moderate lift, secure sweat-proof hold, and a flexible fit that stays put from warm-up to cooldown without ever distracting you from the effort.

2-Bar Design for Training-All-Day Comfort — PowerLite hits the sweet spot between gentle and aggressive. The dual-bar lift opens your nasal passages enough to meaningfully improve airflow during runs, rides, and gym sessions without the stiff, rigid feel of a maximum-lift competition strip. It's the version you'll actually want to wear every single day.

Organic Silk on Skin, Not Plastic — While most nasal strips use synthetic materials, Pneuma's strips are made from natural silk with a hypoallergenic adhesive. Silk is breathable, flexible, and skin-friendly — it moves with your face through sweat and exertion without peeling, slipping, or leaving residue.

Comes with a Travel Mirror — Apply Anywhere — Each tin includes a built-in travel mirror for fast, precise placement before a race, a morning run, or at the gym. No fumbling, no guesswork. It's a small detail that matters when you're dialing in your pre-workout routine.

What does nasal breathing actually do for performance?

When your nasal passages are open, your body can maintain nasal breathing longer into a hard effort. Nasal breathing activates nitric oxide production — a molecule your blood vessels use to dilate and deliver more oxygen to working muscles — and keeps your nervous system from flipping into the stressed, fight-or-flight state that mouth breathing triggers. The result is better oxygen efficiency, more controlled breathing cadence, and less perceived effort at the same output.

How to Use Pneuma PowerLite Performance Tape

Before training: Clean and dry your nose bridge. Use the included travel mirror to center the strip across your nostrils and press the edges firmly to secure.

After training: Peel gently. Single use; dispose after each session.

Pro tip: Start using PowerLite on easy and moderate training days to build your nasal breathing habit before relying on it in races or hard intervals.
