FivePointFive: Breathwork for Athletes
What is FivePointFive
The world’s first breathwork app built for athletes—used by Elite Athletes and a fast-growing community of Everyday Athletes. We turn cutting-edge breathing science into short, coached sessions that strengthen performance and recovery, improve focus and stress resilience, and deepen restorative sleep.
Built on science. Made measurable.
Peer-reviewed research links structured breathwork with higher VO₂-max, improved HRV, lower resting heart rate, and better sleep quality. FivePointFive translates that science into sessions you can see working:
- Live heart-rate in class to watch your autonomic nervous shift in real time
- AI Performance Coach with post-session insights and coach tips
- Trends over time across HR, HRV, resting HR, and sleep
Train the full system: Mind • Body • Sleep
- Mind: Downshift stress fast, sharpen focus, and rebalance the nervous system—in as little as 90 seconds.
- Body: Build breathing mechanics and CO₂ tolerance to increase endurance, boost stamina, and speed recovery.
- Sleep: Lower nighttime cortisol and deepen restorative sleep so you wake recovered and ready to go.

I don’t often leave reviews, but this app has changed the game for me. I have asthma, and when I do weight training or running, my lungs usually feel way more exhausted than my actual body. Ive been using the app for a few weeks now, and I’ve already noticed I get way less breathless, and generally feel a lot stronger and less dizzy. I mostly use the performance boosters and health activators to train CO2 tolerance and lung capacity. I haven’t tried the recovery classes yet, but I’m going to start adding that into my routine as well - interested to see how they help.Thank you so much. You’ve genuinely changed my life. I hope more people looking to improve their fitness/health find this app!!

Wow, thank you so much for taking the time to write this, and for sharing so openly about your asthma and training experience 🙏It’s incredible to hear that you’re feeling less breathless, less dizzy and stronger during weights and runs already – that’s exactly why we built FivePointFive. We’re especially happy the performance boosters and health activators are helping you train CO₂ tolerance and lung capacity in a way that feels good in your body.Thank you again for such a powerful review and for recommending us to others. It genuinely means a lot to the whole team 💙
Great app

Review updated after being contacted to be told that Garmin integration is happening shortly. Would defo recommend this. Been using the app for a few weeks now. Despite not fully integrating Garmin I subscribed after the free trial anyway because it’s good, nice interface & various classes for different moments. Such a shame Garmin isn’t fully integrated on a platform like this though! Yet! Although I’d like to say you can use Garmin in the classes but not to the same extent you can with Apple. This sounds like it’s temporary & will be improved shortly.
Developer Response
Thanks so much for the kind words — really glad you’re enjoying the app.Just to clarify, a large portion of our users are already using Garmin and connecting it to their classes successfully to track their in-session metrics and receive ai coach feedback.That said, we’re currently working on a full Garmin integration, which will be coming very soon. If you’d like, feel free to email us at support@fivepointfive.com we'd be happy to add you to the beta tester list so you can try it ahead of the wider rollout.Really appreciate your support — and excited to bring this to you soon.
Excellent!

I rarely take the time to review apps, but this is one that deserves it! I’ve always had a bit of a weakness when it comes to breathing. Running was off the cards for a long time and I found other breath work formats boring. This is so far from that! The plan and classes set out for you are great! Perfect length of time, great coaches and I’ve noticed a massive difference. This is one app that I would highly recommend. Genuinely feel it’s made a difference in my sporting ability! Thank you 🙏🏼

Update

Having left a previous review as there was no Oura integration, I was advised it’s on its way at some point in the future together with more updates. The team handled it absolutely brilliantly and I can’t recommend this app highly enough. Looking forward. To seeing what they bring in the future.
