I blown away by the detail and knowledge of this man. I am a pharmacist in the UK for over 6/7 years and this man has really nailed respiratory in one short video. Well done sir.
Ever since my asthma came back I haven't been able to workout like I used to. I will have to try these tips because I hate not being in shape, anyone else ever feel breathless and anxious even just ten minutes into a run?
This is extremely helpful! Thank you! I tried to do a 30min warm-up with this nose breathing/breath-holding technique prior to my morning running today (used to just step out and start running with zero warm-ups), and I was already able to breathe much easier and even run a few miles further before I had to reach for my inhaler.
Amazing video. People without breathing problems have no idea the knowledge you are giving us. I apply this and it helps. Thank you so much!!!!! I love your book and all your videos and I always come back to them to remind myself!!! 😉❤️❤️❤️😉😊👍👍👍👍
This helped a lot thx ☺️ The only thing I need to work on is keeping calm during an asthma attack, because I get to panicked and that makes it worse, especially as I’m trying to run off the field to get my inhaler 😞 (I’m 13 and play soccer btw)
This doctors knowledge is awesome.. what he just gave is a mantra to unlock everything you go through in your life.. breathing changes everything.. child breathing to old age breathing its different each stage but breathing exercises can make you young again like young adult… skin hair asthma everything brcomes good if you regulates breathing…..I am not a doctor but its my common sense says… before i watched this video….
update. Have been trying this, even exercising with only nose breathing. NO ASTHMA. First time in my life ive ever been able to run without having an attack!!
@@omram566 that's good. I had no attacks bc i used my inhaler and I couldn't breathe through my nose properly bc I have severe nasal congestion but I'm treating that now but I can work out a lot better
we had a special day in school where we went to a sauna for 3-4 hours. i didn't stay in the sauna for more than 30 mins. there were swimming pools with 34 degree celcius water too maybe that also helped. After the sauna we had a 2 hour break and then 3 hours physical education we played football, basketball and volleyball. I played for three hours with short breaks but never had any problems breathing. Normally i start to feel my lungs hurt after 10 mins of exercise. maybe go to a sauna or put a towel over your head with hot water under it before you exercise.
Wow! Wow! Wow! I’ve been trying to get my running up for the last 8 months for an important fitness test. This video might just be the game changer I needed. Thank you so much!!! Edit: You jut got yourself a new subscriber.
4 years of running. I did 4-6 miles. minimum 3 times a week but normally 5. I lost 100punds in 1 year. But after that first year.... no matter how hard I Trained my time would not get better. I feel chocked after few minutes. Tried doing long warmups, interval trainings but the speed never came. I can remember when Gym at school back in the day i could run and run and rund until the heart pounded and u felt the hearth was the restriction... now its just like I don't get oxygen.... I have good breathing teqnuics but nope. My heart does not get the air. I would die of lack of oxygen I was to only breathe through my nose while running.... Had issues with very high resting heart beat my whole adult life, but it went down to 48bpm and i got dizzy every time i got up from sitting position too fast. Ended up stop running as there was no progress anymore but i want to start again.
I have exercise induced asthma and use an inhaler during exercise if i feel like i need it. But I usually don't need it unless im doing leg day and then it flares up really bad! Maybe it's just because leg day is harder then other muscle groups but it is concerning how difficult it becomes to breath during my leg workout, the inhaler hardly even helps. I am going to try breathing through my nose more!
I'm confident that this is because the blood is thickening I have Frozen elbow and when I get up because my frozen elbow hurts I have breathing difficulties and when I exercise it heats the blood up and makes it so that the blood is moving into my body at the rate that it's supposed to and the breathing difficulties go away which is strictly because my blood is heated and I believe if we made a needle to change blood temperature that when the blood is heated it would turn into more of a liquid and the blood would be able to go to the lungs at the rate that it is supposed to
This video was very helpful! Thank you 🙂 I am trying to nose breathe more, I broke my nose when I was younger and it was never fixed so my nose passages are narrower. But I have found nose breathing helps me run for longer. Just training myself to do it rather than mouth breathing
During nights that my nose gets congested, I noticed holding my breath would improve it for a couple minutes. Didn't know this was something to be practiced.
did it ever go away?? Ive been feeling congestion in my nose and what feels like my throat and maybe even the lungs idk, i went to the hospital and they said it was just a upper respiratory infection and my doctor gave me 2 inhalers but they never tested me for asthma and this has been going on for about 3 and a half months, i keep spitting up mucus but its not green or nothing its like normal colored spit like transparent or white.
when ever im exercising i always try consciously breathe through my nose but i cant ever get enough air in so i start to panic and it usually triggers an asthma attack any tips ?
Hi Chloe. Improve your Control pause or BOLT score. Generally, asthmatics dramatically over breathe and have a very poor tolerance to CO2. By applying some of the more gentle exercises initially like “Breathe Light, Breathe Right” and “Many small Breath Holds” clients with asthma can start to regain control over their disease whilst safely developing a tolerance to CO2. Practice reduced breathing exercise for 3 times a day, for 30 minutes each time - in the morning, during the day (maybe in the middle of the day - around lunch time), and in the evening before going to bed to ensure a more restful sleep and helping to calm the breathing volume during the night. Severe asthma- do many small breath holds, and small breath holds during walking. Exercise 3 (Buteyko) is the best exercise for severe asthma.
What if you have no ability to breath through the nose? My nasal passages are 80-90% collapsed and deformed. I was born that way. If I try to breath through my nose it sounds like a trumpet, is physically painful and I start to see stars after about 10 seconds. I've been on a waiting list for an operation for 3 years.
Yes, nose breathe at all times. Improve your control pause. Practise many small breath holds for ten minutes by six times daily. See how that goes. It will make a difference for you quickly. Do the nose unblocking exercise if your nose is stuffy. These videos are free on my youtube channel.
Hey i do feel out of breathe after running and feels like my airways have narrowed. Normal human recovers from breathe under couple of minutes but it takes me 20 - 30 mins to.get back normal without medication. Is it asthma or something else.
Hi @dlopdx, BOLT stands for Body Oxygen Level Test. It is a score taken at the same time daily (best done in the morning) that gives you a guide to your breathing progress. It involves taking a breath in through the nose, out through the nose, hold your breath and time the breath hold. Hold the nose to make sure no air sneaks in. Then hold the breath until you feel the first moderate to strong desire to breathe or the first involuntary contractions of the breathing muscles. Here is a brief explanatory video on how to take the BOLT score: ua-cam.com/video/iEGNXbj0QgM/v-deo.html Also, 'Breathe' author James Nestor recently used the BOLT test on the popular Diary of a CEO podcast. ua-cam.com/video/IXJmTl7AFGs/v-deo.html Hope that helps.
When you say breath through your nose do you mean to only breathe in through your nose and out through the mouth or do you mean to do all actions of breathing through the nose
When I breathe too fast or have a strong airflow coming towards me such as a fan or strong wind, I tend to get an irritated throat. If I don't do anything about it, my throat will become sore and I will eventually get bronchitis with chest congestion. Does this sound like I have exercised induced bronchoconstriction/asthma or something else?
Try to slow down your breathing. Wear the tape at night - in will ensure nasal breathing during sleep. Also, try to breathe only through the nose all the time ( during rest, work and sleep). A proper warm-up would be starting with breathing light while walking, breathe regular and calm through the nose using the diaphragm.
okay that is amazing but please let me know what to do when i have no possibility of breathing through my nose. i have wonky nose, so i can only breathe through only one of nostrils which is not allowing enough of air to go in for doing even the simplest activities like walking - so i have to breathe through my mouth. how to reduce chanced of exercise induced asthma in this situation?
One really important aspect in all of this is to lose weight if overweight, and cut down on foods that are high in sugar. Being overweight, eating large meals, unhealthy, smoking and stress is going to make you breathe more and feed back into your symptoms.
Is this the same thing as my throat feeling like it is tightening while I lift weights? I breathe through my nose and exhale through my mouth, but it still happens.
i start coughing up mucus and phlegm during and after an intense run/exercise. I thought it was normal but after doing some research, its seems I have some type of exercise induced asthma or exercise induced bronchoconstriction
CNA you develop this? I had symptoms like a cold, then like bronchitis and I thought I had covid but I got two negative tests. I got a chest and sinus CT scan this week as they still do not know what I have.
yes you can develop it, I got it at 35 years old. You actually feel like you cant breathe, heart races and then you eventually start panicking. If you have any of these symptoms, you most likely have it. It only happens when working out or jogging.
Hi Anna, please read these two articles: oxygenadvantage.com/nasal-breathing-running/ and oxygenadvantage.com/improved-running-economy/ to see how nasal breathing can improve performance. The objective is to create a need for air. Ensure that you jog and run at a pace that lets you keep your mouth closed. To make progress, breathing should always be through the nose. Breathing must be controlled and the air shortage should not be so much that it causes you to open the mouth. If you need to open your mouth during physical exercise, you are pushing yourself too hard. Slow down instead and exercise at a level that is right for you. Also, this page might be helpful to you: buteykoclinic.com/breathing-while-exercising/.
mainly watching this because after more than a year at home my stamina plummeted and im going to have to be doing physicl activities when i go back to school lol
I have a constantly clogged up nose, becauase I live in Canada. In winter the air is too cold and dry. In spring/summer I may experience allergies. Two things have helped me: neti pot and a nasal corticosteroid, which i only use when nothing else woks (because it may cause glaucoma, so I use it sparingly). You may have a sinus issue that might need to be seen with a doc, if you can.
Try the DIy baby shampoo, Himalayan pink salt, xylitol, baking soda, purified water sinus rinse. Recipe’s googlable. Clinically proven to break bio films. Will open your nose and breathing passages.

Same here bro
Same man. I used to be able to run forever. Now after a mile or so it starts to feel like I'm choking
Don't worry man. It'll go away. I've gone through this a million times. Keep pushing hard and eat right!
A ten minute run would be amazing. Mine acts up after about ten seconds of running. You can’t accomplish very much in ten seconds.
Same bro i cant even work... i feel bad for my family
I just started running and experience coughing when I'm short of breath. Not sure if it's the same but I learned from this video. Thanks!

It’s so hard for me because of my allergies my nasal passages are often blocked.
It's my case reading your comment right now 😂
Philipe d. Believe it or not some of the breathing exercises have helped clear my nose at least long enough for my hAlf hour run
I've got allergies that led to asthma and can't get enough air at all through my nose when exercising. Very frustrating.
Sameee
NoBasementInTheAla me too! My nose is always clogged

How did it go?
I don’t know if i have this or have anxiety panic attack every time I exercise.
Panic attack is induced by you feeling shortness of breath due to inflamed throat as it closes
I will try this I hope it helps ! I love to run and bike, having allergy induced bronchoconstriction is hard

@@OxygenAdvantage thanks sm!
So even exhaling is through the nose? Inhale and exhale is through the nose only? Thank you so much doctor❤
Anyone got suggestions on reducing phlegm for new runners, I just started doing nose breathing but it doesn't help enough with the mucous.
Amazing thank you !
Oh my gosh, this is sooooo helpful!
Avoid polluted areas, it areas with a lot of vehicle traffic (especially diesels).
thank you

Excellent.
My diaphragm is flat from not being able to breathe for years....not on any medication until this week....how do I breathe deep with a flat diaphragm?

How do I tape my mouth while sleeping? Like what tape do you recommend? Thank you
My nose I’d always clogged so I can’t breather through my nose
Would a Neti pot help?
Is it better to exhale thru the nose as well? Inhale and Exhale with only the nose?
