Exhaling Through the Nose vs the Mouth During Exercise - Nasal Breathing and Athletic Performance

breathing oxygen advantage® Sep 14, 2021



🤔Is it better to exhale through the nose or through the mouth during exercise?

🤔Is there a connection between nasal breathing and athletic performance?

🤔Can your breath help you to regulate your response to CO2 and the sensation of air hunger?

These are a few of the questions that I aim to answer in this video. As an Oxygen Advantage® instructor, I want to be upfront that my bias lies in nasal breathing at all times, even during intense physical exercise.
