The 75 percent rule for inhale and exhale was exactly what I needed... I try to inhale and exhale maximally which is apparently not good... So I toned it down after watching this video and can feel a big difference already in just an hour. Thank you Zac!
And you're an amusing realist ~ helpful to me as I'm at the end of constantly trying things that don't work ... or worse ~ caused more damage to my bod. Definitely will make an appointment.
Woww💥 this was a Best of 2024 video! The tongue-as-support-for-nasal-floor is a huge concept! _Finally_ understanding with a 'relaxed belly' as I breathe in I'm not helping the diaphragm push stuff down! This idea of pressure of nasal vs mouth exhale etc.. 💯
Hi Zac, could you explain pls why air and the guts move backwards with a forward reach (17:00)? Shouldn't the ERed Scaps move stuff forward? Thank you very much!
sometimes i "breath" into my stiff and knotted areas. For example. breathing into my lower right hip and right shoulder.i "breath" into my stiff and knotted areas.
Don’t understand why counter nutation expands pelvic floor with inhalation, it looks like coccyx, sit bones and pubic bone moves towards each other, which suppose to help contraction. Or it is about essentric contraction of pelvic floor during inhalation and concentric contraction during exhalation?
1:21 but you breathe in by also simultaneously _pulling_ _down_ the diaphragm to _create_ a suction. If you don't work that automatic effort below this may be why you struggle to breathe at night.
Breathe with your belly, breathe with your diaphragm, breathe from the top down. Every now and then a new discovery. I'm not saying that this here is incorrect, but it's just too much of it all.
Just a comment on that: Lungs fill from the bottom up (gravity). Your lungs are not in your belly. No reason to breathe into the belly conciously (except for various breathing techniques like in yoga or so..). The diaphragm is always involved - you cant breathe without it. How good that works depends on your breathing mechanics, wich are dependand of your ribcage mobility. You cant say its too much of it just because you are negating the "complexity" :)
Best breathing video I've ever found. Exhausting to hear 'belly' over & over by folks who've obviously never been in an A&P course or book.
