Nasal Breathing: A Secret Weapon for Performance
Most people breathe through their mouths without realizing they could be limiting their performance, endurance, and recovery. Nasal breathing is an untapped superpower that can enhance oxygen efficiency, reduce fatigue, and even improve mental clarity.
Why it matters:
Nasal breathing filters and humidifies the air, increasing oxygen uptake and lung efficiency.
It activates the diaphragm for deeper, more controlled breaths that boost endurance and focus.
Studies show athletes who adopt nasal breathing experience improved cardiovascular performance and faster recovery. (More)
