My coach has been on me about my poor breathing for the last year and I'll give the viewers a piece of gold for free with a drill we've doing for that amount of time! Take a straw (cut it to a shorter length to be easier, a fingers length to start) and climb while inhaling through your nose and exhaling through the straw (do not exhale around the straw). Focus on the powerful exhale (kind of like a power scream) and you will feel your entire core engage. Practice this type of breathing on easy terrain until you learn the technique and then apply it to harder climbing or even endurance or power endurance laps. You can also tempo the breathing, for instance, 2 counts inhale, 4 counts exhale. It will take your breathing to the next level!
Fun thing, its something very common in discipline like running, powerlifting, swimming ... but in climbing its the first time i hear someone bring the subject.
about the breathing part: I thought that was curious, especially, when I was in my teens. Just because I focused on breathing through my nose I was always the best in endurance in my class. I even broke a school record because of that. What I wonder though is why people start breathing through the mouth?
A multitude of reasons. A big one is the underdevelopment of modern human jaws. With the advent of food preparation, we have vastly underdeveloped jaw muscles and skeletal structures, this is why wisdom teeth exist in the first place. Back in ancient times our jaws were wide enough to support a new set of molars without impaction. This scrunched facial structure directly relates to sinus issues as well. So not only does a weaker jaw = more open mouths, sinus issues are far more common now than in ancient times.
Excellent Alex that you brought up this subject. Why inhaling through the nose is so important for maximum power: 1. The air is warmed up. 2. In the nose a gas is added to the air. This gas enables the lungs to take in about 15 % more of oxygen. More oxygen = more power/endurance. That is the reason too why it is important to sleep with the mouth shut! If you sleep with open mouth: Close your mouth with tape: a strip fixed parallel over your lips. It takes 2-3 nights to get accustomed to it. Bonus: if you are a kid/teenager: it prevents that your lower jaw becomes shorter than your upper jaw: th-cam.com/video/Vm7rhNCgQSI/w-d-xo.html More details: th-cam.com/video/zbzT00Cyq-g/w-d-xo.html 3.

@@Turbosim No, sorry I can't remember it. Every day I read several scientific articles in pubmed.gov, clinical trials, science ... Perhaps here somewhere: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=breathing+nose
If people tuned out of the everyday trends and routines they were taught they would come to realize all these "new" things come naturally. I notice everyone has the answers of other people but very few seem to understand their bodily functions
I have read this book and agree that it presents some pseudoscientific notions, like the monk who could heal himself through breathing, etc; but I felt that the author was describing the beliefs rather than asserting they were all true

Total concentration, 1st form - bouldering 🔥
I was just thinking of a Tamoa, water breathing mash up 😆

I took the breathing principles I learned from boxing and lifting and applied it to climbing.
Very inspiring climber
I thought the secret for sending harder was carrots...
If want to learn abot breathing , Buddhism meditation will really help to be a better person !

Wasn't the giveaway supposed to finish on the 12th of May? Now its just in the outro of every video

A gas is added to the air ? Can you tell more ?

"In the nose a gas is added to the air"
You're probably talking about Nitric Oxide
someone has watched wim hof there
If you breathe it, you can achieve it.
Demon slayer was right!

"Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art" by James Nestor, note the author is a journalist. Pseudoscience claiming to be something it's not
Can you give some examples? Seems like I can read it for free on Audible right now and am wondering if I should.

Holy fuck I cant stand these titles! There is no '' secret ''. Hard work and dedication, that's it. Keep it real, come on.
it's called CLICKBAIT! Look it up buddy 😆
