Here are the top six reasons athletes are choosing AIRWAAV’s science-backed performance and recovery mouthpieces.
01. Built on 15+ years of peer-reviewed research
AIRWAAV was developed from 15+ years of peer-reviewed research led by Dr. Dena Garner, Ph.D., an exercise physiologist and professor at The Citadel.
Her work examined how oral appliances influence key performance markers: respiratory rate, cortisol levels, endurance, and strength output. That research revealed a simple truth: optimize breathing, and you optimize performance and recovery.
Those findings shaped every detail of AIRWAAV's patented technology—from the bite plate design to the material science. The product is built on science, not marketing.
02. Endorsed by neuroscientists and elite athletes
The people who understand performance best are the ones using AIRWAAV.
Dr. Allison Brager, Ph.D., a neuroscientist and sleep researcher, uses the RX1 Recovery Mouthpiece herself. She studies sleep and recovery for a living — and she trusts AIRWAAV to support her own.
On the competition floor, the story is the same. James Sprague, the Fittest Man on Earth, uses AIRWAAV. So does the entire World's Strongest Man podium — Mitchell Hooper, Rayno Nel, and Tom Stoltman.
03. Two categories. One science. Different applications.
Every AIRWAAV product runs on the same principle — open the airway, improve how the body breathes. What changes is when and how you use it.
The Performance Mouthpiece is built for training and competition. Bite down, move your tongue forward under the front intake bar, and your airway opens — lowering respiratory rate and reducing post-exercise cortisol. It comes in two fits: the PX1 for a relaxed, barely-there feel, and the PX2 for a snug, locked-in fit. Same results. Different feel.
The RX1 Recovery Mouthpiece is built for sleep. Patented Reflex Technology™ uses Reflex Bumps to contact the base of the tongue, triggering a subconscious reflex that moves it forward and clears the airway — with no jaw repositioning.
Train with one. Sleep with the other. Both work on the same science.
04. What better breathing actually does
Breathing sounds like a small thing to optimize. The research says otherwise.
Dr. Garner's peer-reviewed work found that using an AIRWAAV mouthpiece lowers respiratory rate by up to 20% during exertion. Fewer breaths for the same output means your body is working more efficiently — and that efficiency shows up as endurance late in a session, when most people fall apart.
The same research found post-exercise cortisol reduced by up to 50%. Cortisol is your body's stress response. Less of it after training means you recover faster and come back sharper for the next session.
Overnight, the mechanism is the same but the payoff is different. A clearer airway means fewer disruptions, deeper sleep, and mornings where you actually feel rested.
Breathe better under intensity. Recover faster after. Sleep deeper at night.
05. Built for every level of athlete
AIRWAAV works the same way whether you're chasing a podium or just chasing a better set.
The PX1 has an open bite channel and a relaxed, minimal feel. Athletes tend to choose it for strength training, CrossFit, strongman, baseball, softball, golf, tennis, basketball, and HIIT.
The PX2 has a material-filled channel that molds tighter for a snug, locked-in fit. It's a common pick for distance running, cycling, triathlon, track and field, rowing, functional fitness, and anyone who clenches hard.
Same performance benefits in both. The only difference is how it feels in your mouth — and that's a personal preference, not a performance one. If you're torn, the Hybrid Pack gets you one of each so you can find your fit.
06. See the difference for yourself
Every claim on this page traces back to peer-reviewed research or the athletes who put it to work. But the only test that matters is your own.
Most people notice the difference in the first session. Breathing feels easier under load. The tenth round doesn't fall apart the way the tenth round usually does. With the RX1, it's the first morning — waking up without that dragged-through-it feeling.
Every AIRWAAV mouthpiece is heat-moldable for a custom fit in minutes, lasts 4–6 months, and is backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. Try it. If it's not doing what we said it would, send it back.
