DO THIS DAILY If You Struggle to Breathe While Running

Are you struggling to breathe while running? Running breathlessness is very common for beginner runners. Health professionals who specialise in breath retraining say that non-elite athletes can benefit immensely from breathing exercises and can expect to see results in 2 weeks by doing respiratory muscle training for 5 minutes per day. Learn how in this video.

💥💥80% of Runners are Injured EVERY YEAR 😲 But it Doesn't Have to be You!

[TN-cxqi]

I just started running a few weeks ago and have noticed that I struggle to breathe a little bit right away, in the first 2-5 minutes, but after that I could jog for 30+ minutes without a struggle.

I’m trying to work up my speed right now. Currently I’m around 11 min a mile shooting for 8 min miles. Have no idea how long it will take but going from someone who always hated running to where I am now is crazy.

Excited to try these tips and see if things improve!

15 seconds here and before he showed the score board I was thinking that I've owned the challenge lmao

It’s very simple really. If you’re struggling to breathe while running its because you’re running too fast. Slow down and run at a slower pace. Walk if necessary. Running fitness builds up slowly: there are no shortcuts or hacks. And most of all, don’t listen to YouTubers trying to make it more complicated than it really is. Like walking, running is a normal human activity, but one that requires a higher level of fitness than walking to do over a non-trivial distance. But if you’ve got asthma, see your doctor, as thats a medical problem, not a running problem, and one that can make running more difficult.

I’ve always been able to hold my breath pretty well, since I always played around with breath holding when I was bored. So doing the breathing exercise at the start of this video, I was easily able to hit “elite “level. But if I try to jog I’m gasping for air and my muscles are fatigued within about 30 seconds of moderate running and I have to slow to a walk to recover.

Totally relate to your swimming story mate - had exactly the same experience when I got back in the pool last year. It's nice to hear I'm not the only one who went through that!

This is incorrect, the urge to breathe isn’t oxygen driven but co2 driven. It is the rise in acidity in the blood created by the increase in co2 that creates the urge to breathe.

I have a good physical condition but when i m jogging i ve to catch my breath after 1km of moderate running. No muscles fatigue, nothing. I can lift weights easily but when i m running this happens. No heart or lungs problems. I m starting to think that this is my problem. At the counting no breathing exercise i ve got about 25 secs. I will try to improve this exercise and then run again to see the difference

[PabloCruise]

I have a heart condition and was surprised that I held for 33 seconds..
I only have 12-15% heart function and get winded very quickly..

Here 4months before an interview great tips 😊authentic detailed video of breathing problem

Only using one nostril is best especially while scampering up a steep incline or doing intervals. The one nostril approach is easy just use tape to stick one side of nose closed. Alternate the nostril on even days.

13 first time but I had just finished a .25 jog. 22 after I gave myself time to breathe.

Edit: If you watch this video after a physical activity, don't forget to let yourself catch your breath first!

I’ve been losing my breath and hyperventilating since I was a kid trying to run. The burn is ungodly. I was always the slowest runner. Even the really out of shape morbidly obese kids ran faster and had more air then me.

[mustardbiscuits]

the test and tips were really helpful for me! love the channel, keep up the good work!

[jsmr]

Holy moly. I exercise regularly 4-5 days a week. Work on breathing and lung work. Been doing it for a year. I could only hold for 15 seconds. Whoa. In the poor range. 😮

[tiffanywarren]

Thanks for this! I've been trying to improve my breathing while running, and it is a challenge. Here's my question: When I hold my breath on a light inhalation, I can hold it beyond 40 seconds. When I hold it at the end of the breath, I can barely last 23 sec. Should I be taking a bigger inhalation while running?

[feraltrafficcone]

I play the tuba, so not too surprised I got 33 and a half seconds. Hell yeah for breathing exercises!

[yihgyqg]

it improved 27min and 21sec for second try

[S.patel-boy]

Iam 40 😍✊🔥🔥🔥 iam from india I doo running daily
