Rebecca Coales is a former competitive breath-hold swimmer who brings her experience in breath training to endurance sports.
She encourages nose breathing during physical exercise for greater efficiency and oxygen. Yes, that's right - getting more oxygen by breathing less! If you've tried this, you'll know it can feel a bit uncomfortable, and this is where the training that Rebecca did as a 5x UK record holder comes into play.
By training your tolerance to carbon dioxide you avoid getting out of breath. Those suffering from exercise-induced asthma will find nose breathing helps to reduce symptoms.
Rebecca is an Oxygen Advantage instructor (taught by author Patrick McKeown) and yoga teacher.
