Why We Get Breathless (And What To Do About It) with Jarrod Briffa

[@thomasv.s.2826]

What completely transformed my swim is to only breath in when I pull on my opposite arm. It gives me a lot of time to breathe in a relaxed way as I'm high on the water.

Almost 10 minutes in, and I am blown away!

[@natkal1000]

Thoroughly enjoy this episode. It's always impressive when a guest can simply a complex subject. Would love to see more episodes like this in the future :)

[@tinybarabo]

This was such an eyeopener regarding breathing! Wow, thank you 🤍🤍

[@PaulDaviesSEO]

Great podcast fellas , definitely learnt a few things , cheers

[@bukkfrig]

Thanks for this. I need to practice these techniques, big time. After about 17 months swimming, even though I've made huge strides in technique thanks to your channel and others, I still cannot manage the breath well enough to do 200m continuously at any effort level. It has become obvious that the breath itself is the issue, and not the stroke. For example, we should be able to recover even _while moving_ as long as the effort is low enough, but for me, if I force myself to maintain the breath rhythm of the swim, then I won't even recover _while holding on to the side of the pool._

When I gasped for air, I certainly was tired, slightly in panic mode, and not breathing down. I am learning to inhale into gut lately, to get away from shallow inhale while swimming. Interestingly, one of the reasons for me to learn swimming is to help my singing. Swimming really has improved my air management while holding a long note. Another interesting fact is that when a singer gets better vocal control, a major factor being better air management and how gut and diaphragm control the airflow.

Awesome interview 👏👏👏 Thanks for all of your excellent content. I’m a beginner swimmer and the breathing is kicking my ass. I’m going to apply many of the tips from this video 🤘😎🤘

[@ronaldmartin7499]

How do you have long slow and deep breaths when you only have a very short window of time to breath in when swimming freestyle?

[@katebeedot6964]

Excellent explanation of best timing and ways to control CO2 intolerance with examples and proper method; really liked the nose breathing at recovery and the dry land exercises and tests Thanks 😊

[@valeriesharp4875]

Listened to this intensive, informative pod. When swimming Is the correct advice to breathe most of the air out through your nose in the water and a small balance of air through your mouth before coming up for your next breath or can you breathe all of the air out through your nose in the water before coming up for the next breath through your mouth. 😊

[@valeriesharp4875]

I was taught to breathe all your air out through your nose in the water before coming up for your next breath through your mouth. 😊

The main cause is its a reaction to stress,,,and you need to train to be more relaxed while stressed:)

[@33Jenesis]

Natural reaction to drowning is really hard to tame or overcome. When I first started learning swimming my fear was heightened every time I was in deep end; Chest tightened, heart rate up, air seemed to be gone, and muscle became heavy. This fear is still in the back of my mind now while I swim lap. A couple of time I swallowed water by accident, my body forgot how to swim immediately and fear came to consciousness to take over.

[@glebkhorash312]

Very interesting. It’s really possible to increase efficiency and speed with developing of efficiency of breathing because this is the main source of energy. And each person really can develop this ability. Thank you 🙏. Now I really want to involve those exercises in my daily routine.

[@peterfarkas943]

In the hypocapnic drill, is it better to hold air for the first half of the time, and blow out just at the end? I used to blow out continually. Is it a wrong way?

[@Thxwinterscurce]

Hello, I watched your old video "Stroke Rates of elite swimmers", tell me how you calculated the Stroke Rates? can you tell me the formula for counting? Or is there a program for this?

[@the1bradclark]

Due to chlorine sensitivity, I have to swim with nose clips. Understanding that my inability to exhale through my nose is causing carbon dioxide build up, I struggle with breathing in distances longer than 100 yards. This video is helpful, but can you give me any tips, drills, or advice to assist my breathing with my nose clips? Thanks!

[@quentint9493]

Same issue with clorine and nose clip. Looking for some tips to help with the problem. 100m is the cap without getting rushing HR

[@the1bradclark]

@@quentint9493 Thanks for the reply! It makes me feel better that it's not just me!

[@lendial]

is exhaling through mouth much worse than exhaling through nose?

[@the1bradclark]

@@lendial Yes, exhaling through the nose eliminates carbon dioxide. Without eliminating carbon dioxide, it builds up, causing you to panic-breathe. That's why nose clips can be so frustrating. Still hoping for any advice, drills, tips, etc., to assist with nose-clip breathing from Brandon or his team.

[@molri564]

I am so interested by this. I come from tne world of science and engineering why has no one told me this before ??

[@tash4122]

Excellent questions B . Wow I didn’t know about the importance of carbon d .

[@bretgreenfield9501]

My tip on breathing, like the swim, keep your eyes closed, and only open them while you inhale,

[@bretgreenfield9501]

And congratulations to both of you, your blinking while talking, such a big sign of good:)

[@davidrmcmahon]

I gave up swimming after I swallowed some water, hoping to get back soon

[@1046C]

Thoughts and prayers

[@J5423C]

I swallowed water few times when I first started swimming over a year ago but kept on thank God. It's not a good sensation but I didn't give it much thought.

[@JimSalinas-dt5fw]

What kind of tape do you use to tape youri mouth?

[@reknirbecurb]

I’ve had success with KT tape 👍 Oxygen Advantage sells tape on website too
