The Science Of Dominance
Understanding how CombatStrips work is understanding why you'll never compete without them again.
The Physiology
Step 1: Nasal Valve Expansion
Your nasal valve is the narrowest part of your nasal airway. During intense exercise, inflammation and structural limitations can reduce airflow by up to 40%. CombatStrips use mechanical lift to physically open this valve, creating an immediate and measurable increase in airflow.
Step 2: Increased Oxygen Delivery
With nasal passages opened, oxygen intake increases by an average of 31%. This means more oxygen reaches your bloodstream with each breath. More oxygen in your blood means better performance from your muscles, faster reaction times, and sustained power output.
Step 3: Delayed Fatigue
Higher oxygen saturation means your body can maintain aerobic metabolism longer before switching to less efficient anaerobic processes. Translation: You can go harder, longer, without gassing out.
Step 4: Faster Recovery
Between rounds or after intense exchanges, your body needs oxygen to clear lactic acid and restore energy systems. CombatStrips accelerate this process, cutting recovery time by an average of 23%.
How To Apply
Clean & Dry
Wash your nose area with soap and water. Dry completely. Any oils or moisture will reduce adhesion.
Position
Place the strip across the bridge of your nose, just above the flare of your nostrils. Center it for even lift.
Press Firmly
Press down along the entire length of the strip for 10 seconds. Ensure complete contact with skin.
Dominate
That's it. The strip will stay in place through your entire session. Remove slowly after training.
💡 Pro Tip:
Apply your strip 5 minutes before training to allow the adhesive to reach maximum bond strength. Remove slowly using warm water to avoid skin irritation.
When To Use CombatStrips
Competition Day
Maximum performance when medals are on the line. Every advantage matters.
Hard Training
Push harder in sparring. Train at competition intensity without gassing out.
High-Altitude
Compensate for reduced oxygen availability at elevation. Essential for mountain training camps.
Best Practices
DO: Apply to clean, dry skin
Maximum adhesion requires proper surface preparation.
DO: Use during high-intensity sessions
Greatest benefit when you're pushing cardiovascular limits.
DO: Remove slowly after use
Warm water helps. Protect your skin for tomorrow's training.
DON'T: Reuse strips
Adhesive is single-use. Each strip is designed for one session.
DON'T: Apply over moisturizer or sunscreen
These create a barrier that prevents proper bonding.
Experience The Advantage
One session with CombatStrips and you'll understand why elite athletes won't compete without them.
