duration: 20min

benefits: improve co2 tolerance, decrease stress, improve recovery and blood flow

protocol:
• breathing through the nose
• hand on the chest, hand on the belly
• take smaller breaths than usual, using the diaphragm/belly
• short inhales, then fully relax respiratory muscles on exhales
• this will create a feeling of light air hunger in 1-2min, this shouldn’t be forced or uncomfortable
• sustain for 4-5 minutes and take a break back to normal breathing if you need to
• repeat x4

note: breathing should be slow and light, do not try to force it. this is like jogging, not like a sprint.

note2: this is not medical advice. if you have underlying conditions please consult a professional before performing any of this.
