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.
When our respiratory gases in the blood are in balance, homeostasis of the other reactions of the body (neurotransmitters and hormones) are more easily maintained.
L: breathe less - smaller volumes of air S: breathe slow - reduce total number of breath per minute D: breathe deep - don't take big breaths but breaths with the lower part of the lungs -> the diaphragm

CO2 is good 4 u
L.S.D breathing
L: breathe less - smaller volumes of air
S: breathe slow - reduce total number of breath per minute
D: breathe deep - don't take big breaths but breaths with the lower part of the lungs -> the diaphragm
