Past surgeries, pain and life’s stresses can result in you working a little harder at the 23,000 breaths you take each day.
Check Your Own Breathing: Three Things to Notice. Most people Are Surprised By at Least One, Including People Who Breathe Just Fine – That’s What Makes It Worth Checking.
Place a hand gently on your chest; is it completely still & not moving?
When you breathe out; does it last twice as long as your breath in?
Do you notice a 1 to 4 second pause after you breathe out?
In STAMINA’S Two Sessions Below…
SESSION 1: Better Breathing Habits For Better Energy & Stamina
For you if a brisk walk with friends leaves you short on breath for the conversation, or the afternoon slump shows up by two o’clock. Stamina starts with breath, long before it reaches your legs.
Better Backs and Better Balance open with breathing too. This version goes further, because energy is the goal. Seated movements free up ribs that have stiffened, and you’ll see how the way you sit can squeeze your breath before you’ve taken a step.
Every breath you take all day gets cheaper.
SESSION 2: SmartBody50’s Approach to Greater Stamina
How hard is hard enough? A good test: you can still talk, but you couldn’t sing.
This session gives you the rules nobody hands you. First, strengthen the breath itself: bubbles through a straw, a balloon, a slow count in and out. Next, pursed-lip breathing, ready for the hill or the stairs you see coming. Then the plan: how long, how hard, and how to get heart and lung benefit from strength work you already do.
Starting from scratch or already active, you’ll know your next step.
