In the Marine Corps they taught us to breath through our nose when running. Seemed like torture, but knowing what little I know about CO2 now, makes sense.

In a training regime like the marines I'm sure it was incredibly challenging @bigd8185. But they definitely had the idea right. Nose breathing during exercise can improve endurance and performance as well as boost recovery.

Everything you said worked for me, thank you very much

Thank you !!!

This is probably my favorite of all your videos & teachings because it has helped me the most. Even though I've been doing the other exercises for awhile, I didn't notice the change as much as I have with this one. Learning how to breathe properly has been absolutely essential for "healing" a pelvic floor organ prolapse as well as re-aligning my posture, losing weight, resolving my myopia (!!) & calming down in general. Would be great to see Patrick interview Nathan Oxenfeld, a Bates Vision teacher, as they both hold proper breathing in such high regard.

He gained liked 20 pounds.

The problem with me is when i tend to inhale slowly i feel like my brain has stopped taking any air inside at all and after the slow exhale my body reflex is to just gush in as much air as i can.

Hi Patrick, do you have any tips to deal with involuntary responses due to this exercise? I find I can do one or two low and slow breaths but my body starts to fight the exercise and force me to either inhale or exhale faster. Is this just something that will go away over time?

Yes. This is true. Focus only on the air entering the nose, like the air its going against the face. In the beginning i was paying to much attention to the ribcage, and this led me to overthink destroing the benefits. Plus focusing on the ribcage was making me overbreath because i wanted to feel the ribcage expand and i was forcing it too much. Into the face not up the nose is key to breath well, while focused on the nose area. One thing that triggers me is that, okay i am breathing super relaxed almost no air in a n out, but i can´t feel my ribcage move. Can you please confirm me if i am breathing like this the ribcage is functioning in the right way. Because as i don´t sense the ribcage move i tend to think that i am not doing it the right way and in my head i was always teached that the more it moves the better !!😅 Thank you for your work !!

Your belly should be moving in and out as your breath in and out. Your ribcage shouldn't be moving.

Hi @andrefarinha419 You are doing well. You don't want to be breathing with the upper chest. Breathing with your diaphragm and breathing muscles around the stomach and side is best. With one hand on the stomach and one on the chest you can monitor that the stomach is moving when you breathe and the chest remains still.

It would be great if you had a video on breathing for a sport like boxing. Really intense 3 minute rounds and a 1 minute recovery. What's the best way to breathe in that kind of situation for max recovery? Been trying to slow down breathing in this 1 min recovery time to increase oxygen release.

Great idea @joeybidner! We'll keep that in mind for a video in the near future. 😀 In fact, we have a specific video on recovery between rounds coming soon to our KZread channel. Stay tuned!

I believe these exercises help with breathing in general which in turn benefit your conditioning for boxing . Let me know what you think

@tylergooden2183

Generally the key to breathing in boxing is to be sure you’re inhaling and exhaling and generally speaking you want avoid being punched while also landing some hits on your opponent. At least try and hit them more than they hit you and don’t forget that after you inhale, you should exhale and then repeat those two over and over again throughout the bout.

does this mean we shouldn't be contracting the torso in order to force more air out upon exhalation? Effortless exhalation for me means the lungs are never fully emptied; is that normal?

My control pause is about 5 seconds. I feel like suffocating all day , it’s horrible. Is this the way to go combined with good cardio? Or is cardio not helping with this.

All exercise, including cardio is going to be beneficial to your health @stormtraders. However, if you are taking big gulps of air through the mouth when doing light or moderate exercise or worse, when at rest, then you need to improve your breathing. Try to nose breathe as much as possible and do the exercises daily. You can find a full range of exercises on our youtube channels and our free breathing app. OA App 📱 Android Play Store: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oxygen.advantage 📱 Apple store: apps.apple.com/ie/app/oxygen-advantage/id1589260950 Take things slowly, don't push yourself too hard. Gradual progress is still good progress.

Hi @@stormtraders The CP or BOLT score in OA is a guide more than a hard fast rule so people should never worry about slight fluctuations in the score. However 20 is a good base level that we like people to be at. So 5 is a very low score. The breath holds are likely going to be the most beneficial to you at this stage as you are still feeling a lot of breathlessness. Although this video is aimed at children, try this 'steps' exercise from our Buteyko Clinic channel. It is one of the best we have for improving CP. Try it twice a day and after two weeks, see how many steps you can do by the end. This should really help you start to see improvement. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qmmbys6ahZO-d5s.html
