Anyone have any good resource they can pass on that discuss breathing? Prescribing breathing exercises as well would be awesome. I’ve been trying to really develop the ability to properly do the 2:1 that SYSTM teaches in a few of its videos. I’ve found I have a tough time maintaining that rhythm when I break into zone 4 heart rate land and want to try to train accordingly. Thanks and merry Christmas. ---

The breathing videos in the Yoga section would be my first recommendation. ---

Some of the workouts, such as Recharger, have you practice breathing during the workout. ---

Well aware. Looking for something a little more specific and comprehensive. ---

Ask sir glen coutts about the yoga sessions. Apparently he loves yoga!! 🙃🙃🙃 In all seriousness though the yoga and strength sessions are great, particularly if you’re getting on a bit!!! 👨‍🦳 ---

Lol. I AM getting on a bit. @mserge, there was a thing in the From The Coaches about breathing training: > [@Respiratory muscle training (RMT)](https://wahoox.forum.wahoofitness.com/t/respiratory-muscle-training-rmt/14318): > > We all do a lot of training: we ride our bikes, and we do strength work to do everything we can to get fitter, faster and stronger. From that burning sensation in the legs as we suffer our way through these training sessions, we know that we’re making them stronger and more resilient. But are we neglecting another very important muscle group? One of the biggest factors in cycling performance is our aerobic performance, which is powered by the capacity to extract and utilise oxygen from the air … ---

Cool thing about breathing: it requires no special equipment, no change of clothes, travels with you wherever you go, and you don’t have to shower when you’re done (the funeral home takes care of that). I practice mindful breathing and controlling my breath multiple times a day when I’m not focused on anything else in particular. I like the 4-7-8 breathing rhythm that shows up in some of the yoga sessions and usually do that several times a day. It has helped my breath control on and off the bike. ---

Box breathing?
