Just Breathe

Or you can cheat and just get new lungs like me....lol ;-) Just kidding, great advice Kathy

Thank you so much!!! Usually i will run out of breathe after like 200ms of jogging

i've learned a lot in this discussion. thank you so much guys. 

Great information.  I was always skeptical of the breathing apparatus.  I thought it might be a gimmick.  Guess I'm going to give it a geniune effort.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Oliver, I have just started reading a book also about the breathing training, it teaches also to practice the apparatus while doing exercises such as plank and bridge, this enables the body to take best advantage of strengthening the mu...

Hey guys, I am new to this just wanted to say hi. I read the post by Nicola D about the breathing apparatus, just wanted to agree, they are fantastic and simple bits of training kit. I rarely get a stitch anymore whilst running. My technique whil...

Interesting video

In response to Nichola - I find I'm fitter with my lungs than with my legs!  When I'm cycling, I hardly ever get my heart rate up high, even when my legs want to quit!  With running, unless I'm doing intervals or a fast run, I don't get too winded...

It can be used for all types of sport!  I started using it though because the only thing that seems to be stopping me from getting faster at running was my breathing, I would get so breathless. I saw my doctor who give me an inhaler but it mad...

It will get easier 

thanks for the advice but I seem to have issues breathing in through my nose as I don't feel like I get enough oxygen will this get easier with practice or am I going to always feel like I can't breathe

I quite often do 5k training runs where I just focus on controlling my breathing 

I knew that Running is simple & control breathing, where I had similar of these too during my very initial training phase - running. Off course there are too, different methods to be used for differentiated types of running - ie, jogging, striding...

it should no lol

would this help during a basketballl game to?

I have started using a breathing reistance device, it is used to exercise the diaphragm muscles and increase lung capacity, only started using it a week ago, but it has really helped with my running already, feel almost like I'm using more of my l...

Now you've got me wondering if I'm doing it wrong.  What is the proper technique?

I have to say as a beginner to running I have found that is a lot of my problem is trying to breathe while running. I am not sure how to complete my breathing but my chest hurts and I usually have a really bad stitch after I run.

It is important that you learn how to do proper breathing while running. It is a common belief that success in running is dependent on the right movements of the legs and arms, but breathing techniques can also contribute significantly to your abi...

Start using only your nose, then breath in with your mouth and out with your nose. When you go even faster and must use mouth for both in and out breathing remember to keep the rythm, never hyperventilate.

I've been doing better with my breathing. I've slowed my walking warm up pace and started focusing on my breathing. Breathing through my nose and out through my mouth.  I find from time to time that my mind tends to wonder off with out me and does...

I agree Yoga is beneficial.

I started running four months ago and my yoga help a lot in terms of my breathing and i realized yoga and running is a good combination:))

Thanks for that John, I'll have to look out for the powerbreathe, I usually have a couple of squirts on the Ventolin before I go out running which seems to keep it at bay, but I obviously would like to be able to run without any assistance or...

Started running a few years ago which unfortunately brought out my asthma, which I haven't suffored from since my teens, (many, many years ago) I've been to the Doc and got it under control now, but I still feel that my breathing is holding me bac...
