Thank you so much! I usually play 45 second shifts and I'm done, and I can barely survive the next shift, and its really having a big impact on me altogether. Earned a subscriber!
Everything this guy is saying is correct and paramount. I recently realized I have dysfunctional breathing which, over time, universally impaired my performance and inhibited my hip, back, neck, chest, and shoulder muscles via pain and tightness- not to mention the pain points and sciatica I earned as a result. It’s not just about oxygen levels, it’s about the negative vs positive effects that unfold as a result of how your diaphragm is functioning. Don’t let it get to this point, as it took me several years to arrive at this conclusion.
There's a lot of research in the area of performance-based breathing (much more will be covered in future videos), but here's a good place to start in reference to what was discussed in this video: 1. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2246181/ 2. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16129892/ 3. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11960959/ 4. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12819225/ 5. www.researchgate.net/publication/6294138_Hematological_response_and_diving_response_during_apnea_and_apnea_with_face_immersion 6. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11247970/ 7. www.researchgate.net/publication/266736536_The_effects_of_hypercapnic-hypoxic_training_program_on_hemoglobin_concentration_and_maximum_oxygen_uptake_of_elite_swimmers
Trying this for the 1st time today. Was able to do 20 steps for all 5 sets with 60 seconds in between. Game tonight so I'll try 20 steps X 5 with 30 seconds break pre-game and come back with my results. UPDATE: Game got canceled... I play tomorrow
Holding of the breath has not been shown to have negative effects on the brain. However, at the same time it should never be performed to the extreme. A challenge, but not extreme.
People don't realize how important a role breath plays in performance. And life in general. Love this
Please never stop making videos! Most knowledgeable YT channel for hockey training and performance

Excellent info!
They asked Duncan Keith how he can stay sharp and competitive against all the youngsters and he answered: Breathwork

Just caught this myself, thank god I found it out at 26.
Scary stuff.
Hope you’re feeling bettwr
Love this. Can you demonstrate before the next workout you’ll post?
Great idea! I'll add it to the list 💪
Thanks for these sweet tips guys. I always appreciate these types of videos!
Thanks for this info! I'm going to try this before practice tomorrow.
Awesome stuff!!! Keep it up!
Thank you for the in-depth video! Very helpful.
Good stuff, can't wait to try it. Question...when holding nose, do you keep mouth open or closed?
Ideally it would be kept close to help prevent the temptation to take tiny little inhales.
This is so cool! Ima try this for shure
Hi, this is a great video! How often before practice, workout or hockey game would it be ideal to do this breathing technique?
You can do before any of them as there isn't a weekly frequency limit for this. However, most reserve it for games only to get an extra edge.
Very interesting, I've never heard of it before! May I ask the references you've based your knowledge on? I'd be very interested!
Thanks a lot!

@@hockeyscienceunleashed thanks a lot! I'll read that with great attention. Cheers from Switzerland!
How long before a practice or game is this ideal to do? To maximize performance should we be doing it right before?
Either before or after your dryland warm-up is fine 👍
should we breath in through the nose and out through the mouth?
In between breath holds is just a normal breathing cadence, so, whatever feels most natural to you at the time 👍
How does this work with vocal cord dysfunction
So I’m guessing this is another reason why swimming (especially underwater swimming) is beneficial?
Pov: your on your way to your championship game and you searched this up
😂😂
Can I do this before bed
Not necessary before bed -- It would be better to perform a calming, deep breathing type routine. Similar to how we do in our cool downs 💪
This works for goalies to right

Is holding your breath for too long bad for your brain?
Holding of the breath has not been shown to have negative effects on the brain. However, at the same time it should never be performed to the extreme. A challenge, but not extreme.
