Aug 04, 2007 by blood fighter | Posted in Diet & Fitness

this is going to be one of them dumb question...but i have to ask because i really dont know..... are there any breathing exercises a person could do to help them not get gased out so fast..any tips .............

Actually, that's not a dumb question at all. I'm going to assume that you're talking about becoming winded when doing cardiovascular exercise. Basically, you want to establish a steady pattern of breathing when you're exercising. For me, when I jog, I take a breath in through my nose when my left foot hits the ground. The next time my left foot hits, i exhale out through the mouth. After a mile or two, I'll switch it over to the right foot just for a little variety.Experiment with it a little and find the pattern that works best for you.
If you're becoming winded when lifting weights, and yes, it can happen, remember to blow out when lifting the weight, and breath in when releasing it.
Another technique that I've used I picked up in a book on tai chi. You can do this when you're just sitting around, and I think it has helped me a little. Breath in for a count of four, then hold your breath for a count of four, then exhale for a count of four. Continue to do this as long as you can. It might be all in the mind, but it's worth a shot.
Hope this helps a bit, Good luck!!!

Breathing exercises?

Hi All.
Does anyone know any good breathing exercises to help me breath longer under water? and basically hold my breath longer?

Blowing small bubbles does not prolong the time you can stay under water on a breath.
What you need to practice is something called hyperventilation. This is the process of removing as much co2 from your lungs as possible - as this is the stimulant that causes the brain to make you breathe. The process is simple, inhale fully and exhale fully 3 times. On the third breath hold it in and swim underwater. With practice you should be able to hold your breath for longer and longer.
Be careful not to do the inhale/exhale thing more than 3 times as this can lead to blackouts. The body has too little co2 and the reflex to breath doesn't happen. The brain then shuts the body down (effectively knocks you unconscious) to get your breathing back to normal. Obviously if this happens underwater you stand a good chance of drowning.
Good luck.
