      I have been running for over couple decades to feel well and healthy. Never really pay attention to the technical knowledge about it. I have always heard my track coach back in high school telling us breathe through your nose. Never really understood why. Breathing through my mouth felt good and gave me the best kick so I thought. Recently I forced myself to breathe in the nose and out the mouth only. I don’t worry about the time much, just run the best I can with breathing through the nose and out the mouth. I did this during workouts as well. I didn’t care how heavy I lifted just enough where I can breathe in the nose and out the mouth. I did this for one month at 2-4x a week running, my time went from 10:30-11 min miles to 9:00-9:15 easily for 4-8 miles. I was never able to do this for years breathing through my mouth deep or shallow. Now, If I really want to push under 9 min miles for 8-10 miles, I could. I am closed to 48 this year. And my lactic acid burn is almost non existent even during long, fast climb runs. I don’t think I will breathe a different way running again. I wasn’t patient back then to see the changes. It was hard to discipline yourself to breathe in the nose and out the mouth only. It’s painful and difficult as anyone would know doing this. But once you adjusted to this breathing style, it’s like unlimited jet fuel. That’s my secret. Also my long bike rides have less rests as well. 50-60 miles used to have at least 3 breaks. Now, I just do the whole thing with ease. The only changes I made was the breathing.

    I am new to running. Every time I've tried to get into it I find that I get out of breath after ten minutes even though my legs feel completely fine. Yesterday I tried to run for the first time in almost a year and I focused on my breathing during my run. I was trying to breath similarly to how I breath during a meditation session. To my surprise I managed to run for half an hour and the reason I stopped was because my legs were tired. So definitely the breathing helped massively in my case!

    I had a side stitch THIS week! Almost stopped and called my wife, but I just remembered what my Dad taught me when I was a kid. He said you have to hold it and breathe it out, don't stop. My Dad ran the Boston marathon in 2:42:30 at my age so I just grit my teeth, tried to stay on pace and breathe.

    Thank you. I'm so glad you didn't crap on about nose breathing as I keeping coming across on other channels. One thing you touched on and which definitely helped me to improve as a distance runner, and that is to relax and be at peace with myself. The moment you think about the effort, you'll lose focus on staying calm. In my earlier days I'd tense up, clench my fists, have stiff arms and shoulders, which translated to poor breathing habits. Then I taught myself to be a relaxed runner, forget about the effort (just let the run come to you instead of chasing the run), throughout a run I'd ask myself "are you relaxed" and I'd do a mental body check. If I felt I was tense in my shoulders or my arms or any part of my body, I'd be sure to release and relax that part of my body. Now when I run I'm literally in a state of zen. As for my breathing, I've always been a mouth breather and my jaw is relaxed, making sure I belly breath with long deep calm breathing.

  • @mmd3054

    About a year ago I started practising breathing from my stomache while running. It sounded like an easy thing to do but it’s really not if you’re not used to it. Now after a year I can say that I’m exactly what you describe, a much more relaxed runner with better stamina etc. Another thing is that I have asthma and it has helped a lot with that too. It’s very easy to get a weasy chest when breathing with you shoulders/chest but stomach breathing prevents that in a much more efficient way. Starting breathing from the stomach is the most rewarding change I’ve ever done in my running and it’s good for everyday life as well. It takes a while to get the hang of it but it’s so worth the effort. Great video! Keep up the good work! Cheers

    Thanks Richard. Interesting topic. I’ve found that I focus on my breathing over the first .5-1 mile. After that I’ve got a nice rhythm and it helps the rest of my run. If I’m running a race (5-10k) I will check my breathing around a mile left to make sure I’ve still got that comfortable rhythm, otherwise I don’t think about it.

  • @AlexanderMoen
    @AlexanderMoen ปีที่แล้ว +10

    focusing on my breathing definitely made me faster over long periods of time. My heart rate dropped ~10 bpm and I was able to keep things going for longer. Silly things like breathing rhythm matched to a consistent run cadence were huge for me. I've never tried focusing specifically on breaths coming from deep in the stomach though, so I'll have to try that out next and see how it goes.

    As someone who's suffered through asthma most of my life, I've had to find ways to keep my breathing regular and not get out of breath when exercising. The key for me is staying relaxed, forcing myself to breath fully from the diaphragm and learning to regulate my tempo to keep my breathing in check. Been training for a half marathon recently, everything you said in your video is really good advice and the breathlessness people experience is one of the biggest turn-offs to running, so its a good lesson for people to learn :)

    Breathing becomes easier when you have built up a great base of mileage, run at an aerobic pace, which is (180 - age = max heart rate bpm to run aerobic). If your heart rate is higher then slow down and continue untill you get fitter. The heart does not recognise running it only understands the oxygen required to pump the blood around the body and by building the aerobic base your breathing gets easier because your heart rate reduces by beats per minute, then start to introduce speed work, you will then see the fitter you get the easier breathing becomes and when you race your body can cope with the pain of pushing for that pb. It's worked for me and I run a 5km at 17mins at age 55. 😉

      I'm hard pressed to find 5% useful. No mention of nitric oxide. No mention of
      how vastly different folks need different strokes, between slow run breathing
      in an out nasally, with mouth closed - faster running, with nasal intake and
      open mouth out breathing - maximum effort open mouth in & out breathing.
      But I must admit the Red Bull Ball Cap turned me off. Wanna increase your
      risk of a heart attack, suck down 2 or 3 cans of Red Bull then try to set a
      new record on a 10K run. I have to go thumbs down on this one. I have no
      doubt Richard is an accomplished fast runner, but needs to go to basic

Now for running I use different patterns depending from the intensity; for zone 1 and 2 efforts I inhale counting 4 steps and exhale also every 4. In more tempo, zone 3 scenarios or when recovering from a hard interval I go for 2 in / 3 out and for all out efforts or races the ratio becomes 2 to 2. I learned that the trick is not to inhale as much oxygen as possible, but rather to flush away as much CO2 as possible. So when I am really struggling I exhale for longer than I inhale as to be sure the volume of gas I am expelling is higher. If I manage to breathe only through the nose it means I am working within my comfort zone.

    Breathing from the stomach is definitely best. It allows you to use all of your lungs. What was left out was answering the question : Do you breath through your nose, your mouth or both. The science says breath in and out through your nose. The reasons are that the air is filtered, warmed and infused with nitric oxide. This infusion causes an additional 2.5% of oxygen to be delivered to your muscles, organs and brain. All a plus. What some of us face is a restricted airway when breathing through the nose. Short of surgical correction a breath right strip may open up the airway enough to allow successful nose breathing. Triathletes will have to decide when to apply the strip. If one prepares with a small alcohol gauze pad, the nose can be wiped, cleaned and dried to facilitate the strip sticking for the duration of the bike and run with very little time used for application.
    I use a strip for every training run and race. Breath on!

    great video, working on core and posterior chain alongside focusing on running tall can really help as well when working on breathing with the stomach as it lowers the pressure on abdominal area and thus reduces the resistance for the diaphragm, when running tall breathing into your chest would also overextend your upper back and feel unpleasant, so as long as your shoulders are relaxed, you almost automatically breathe into your stomach, slightly tilting your pelvis forward and slightly pulling shoulderblades together could also help in this endeavor

  • @wilfdarr
    @wilfdarr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    As a former freediver I come to running with a little different perspective:
    1. Breathing: breathing controls heart rate to a great extent (using controlled breathing, anyone can drop their heart rate: I can drop my heart rate by half, pros like Mandy Rae Cruickshank can do much much better), but when you're running that's of zero benefit. In diving you intentionally drop your heart rate to conserve O2, which in diving is a precious resource, but readily available when running: in contrast, freedivers use running to expand lung capacity but stop running months before a competition as running has the opposite physiological effect on circulation that a freediver is looking for, which brings us to.
    2: Circulation: For blood to do it's job, you need 2 things: O2 and a correct PH level (controlled by carbonic acid aka aqueous CO2) in the blood: breathe too slowly and you aren't taking in all the O2 that's available to you, too quickly and the CO2 levels drop which results in a PH imbalance (this is why you pass out if you hyperventilate, or get light headed breathing too quickly when running: though saturated with O2, the blood is unable to release the O2 to the cells because the PH is too high as you've released too much of the CO2 in your blood).
    Conclusion:
    My school's running coaches always taught us to control our breathing, and I certainly won't say it's wrong, but it's no longer what I do: I found that if I needed to breath faster it was because my heart rate was too high, so controlling my breathing wasn't the answer (yes controlling your breathing does bring your heart rate down, but in my opinion it only masks what is happening physiologically). Instead of controlling my breathing, I found it was better it ease up a bit to get my heart rate back in the zone and let my breath rate follow (keep in mind I have a 4 minute breath hold, so you're idea of slowing your breathing may also be subjectively different than mine: for this reason I'm a follower of perceived exertion training: especially if I'm watching my heart rate I can adjust the BPM with my breathing...BPM is only one metric I use, but the more I watch it the more unreliable it becomes). But it's also a chicken and egg thing: as I've gotten faster, my heart rate has gone down and my breath rate as well. I'm no pro (RM is literally twice as fast as me 😂) but I've seen tremendous gains this year, which I take as a sign that I'm doing something right, after sitting out two seasons and a winter to switch to toe running I'm running 4 times the distance I was 2 years ago and consistently posting PB's.
    (PS I'm aware that not everyone needs to switch to toe running, that most of the fastest distance runners in the world are heel runners, but my knees just couldn't take the pounding and my success this year after 20 years fighting bad knees is proof that my decision was right for me 🙂)

      @@johnsmith-hs8oi If you can do that (and most people should be able to) that's awesome. Running midfoot will take a lot of strain off your muscles and put it onto the skeletal structure, but most people have healthy joints and should be able to handle that. But I actually run on the balls of my feet, like a sprinter. I recognize it might limit me to “shorter” distances since my muscles are now entirely responsible for supporting each step: I ran my first half marathon in November, double anything I'd been able to run prior with my bad knees, but my muscles were toast after that. And even so my knees were pretty inflamed: it was a couple weeks before I could get back to training again, so I don't think a midfoot strike would take enough pressure off my joints. I'm not sure a full marathon, especially at the end of an Ironman length triathlon will be possible using my current running form, but that's still my ultimate goal. I've accepted that I just have to play the hand I was dealt (my dad had bad knees and he passed it on to all three kids). Heck, after struggling more than 20 years just to hit 10k consistently, the fact that I can now EASILY do 10k makes me ecstatic!

    I’m sure there’s a science behind it and you can definitely breath in certain ways to improve but for beginner to intermediate runners I would say breathing isn’t that important as it comes naturally. I am a beginner and I’ve been training for 3 months and tomorrow I am running my first 10Km. At the beginning I was also wondering how to breath but with slow and steady training my body adjusted and finds the correct way to breath without having to think too much about it! I say the key is persistence with training and it will all work out. Great video!

      more "air" doesnt neccessarily mean better as breathing in air through your mouth doesnt mean youre getting the most oxygen also you need to balance the co2 and oxygen in your body and the most efficient breathing method is through the nose the nose filters the air to ensure youre getting the most oxygen with every breath however if you have too much oxygen and too little co2 the oxygen has nothing to bind to in your body which means its essentially just wasting space in your body which is what causes the light headed nauseous feelings

    We breath through our noses naturally and it delivers fresh, moist, and filtered air to our lungs and when we mouth breath air just goes straight there.
    Also you've always been breathing through your chest then you hear doctors say breath through your stomach.
    I just say do what feel natural to you when you exercise.

    I recently started getting back into running. I decided to breathe only through my nose. I always keep my mouth closed. Even while doing and recovering from speed work. It was more difficult at first, but now I'm just used to it. In the beginning you may not enjoy the feeling of the extra carbon dioxide, but it keeps your blood vessels more open (dilated), plus the nitric oxide from your sinuses improve oxygenation as well. I'm not an expert on the science, but I believe there is something to it. I consider mouth breathing to be more panicked.
