The Buteyko method is intended to free people from their chronic hyperventilation. The Buteyko StopWatch, a Windows application, is intended to help you doing your Buteyko exercises somewhat more easily and to calculate statistics about your progress. You can run the first Buteyko application in the world on Windows 95, 98, 2000, ME and XP. The Buteyko StopWatch is freeware. Features include:
keeping track of the time you have been doing your Buteyko exercises during a session and showing this in the application and the Windows taskbar
measuring your control pause (CP) and/or maximum pause (MP)
saving information about your exercises in a MS Excelsheet (control pause, maximum pause, pulse etcetera)
calculating statistics about how you have been doing every week
showing your progress in diagrams
keeping a Buteyko diary

Since a desk-chair lets you sit with your back straight, it might not be such a bad idea to do your Buteyko exercises behind your PC. Saving information with the Buteyko StopWatch is relatively easy
then.
This application is freeware: anyone can use this program freely for personal
use. Keep in mind that the Buteyko StopWatch cannot be part of any commercial exploitation. The application does not contain any virusses and will not send any information over the Internet. In addition, no ads will be displayed.
