Always Breathing!

Many people have asked me many times about the right way to breath while exercising.

Here is what I have to say:
1. During strength/endurance training such as weight lifting you should generally exhale on the exertion (the most difficult part of the exercise) and inhale on the recovery (the easiest part of the exercise). For example, when squatting, you should inhale during the upright position before you squat down and exhale on the way up.

2. During cardio training, such as cycling, running or swimming you should remember that breathing and the cadence of the cardio activity may not be in sync. The most important things is to avoid shallow breathing whenever possible. Try to establish a breathing pattern (inhale/exhale) that feels comfortable for you.
