Start by setting goals don't try to go all out at the same time try running a certain distance and keep increasing it periodically there was a point where I barely could run a mile Now I run 7-8 miles by try running 2-3 days a week have a good diet (it's very imp) and also observe and track your improvement I am telling you once you get consistent you will feel good and would want to run everyday

For me, I saw improvement and legitimate enjoyment in running when I started treating it more like a sport than a workout. I set long and short term goals for distance and pacing and deadlines of when to hit my own mini milestones until it became routine. I think the key is to set goals that are difficult enough to be a challenge but not so difficult that they are demotivating and unattainable.

[@robertbausa1]

Love this advice. I use the 4 step in/out nasal breathing to make sure I'm staying easy paces, if I can't maintain this pattern I'm running to hard. It is an incredible feeling when you can work up to doing this for several miles straight! Look forward to trying the up tempo breathing patterns as I usually just breath "natural" when picking up the pace for workouts. Focusing on nasal breathing during the day helped a lot as well, which can be difficult for me sometimes as I struggle with allergies much of the year.

[@TheRunExperience]

that's a great technique!

[@fidru]

I do it the exact same way! 👍now since 3 month practicing. I developed 3 "nose-paces" which are all slow (4 steps in and out for recovery, 3 steps in and out endurance pace and 2 steps in and out uphill) But as a lifetime mouthbreather I still struggle with faster paces . e.g. tempo pace is impossible for me to use nose breathing neither in nore out ☹

[@andrewhall6695]

U need to take deep breaths and hold at regular intevals to maintain the Carbon dioxide balance .U should actually start by breathing in intevals and when u can breathe any more nasally go back to regular breathing and after about 3 to 5 minutes start again

[@-danR]

I've watched a number of videos, and this one omits an extremely salient element of efficient exhalation: *pursed lips* He's doing it on the treadmill 4:23 , but never draws attention to it. pursed/compressed lips on exhalation increases the O2 partial pressure and drives more oxygen through the alveoli barrier into the bloodstream. Neither does anyone seem to be paying attention in the comments.

[@betrabox]

​@@-danRI came here to ask about this. Is he indeed breathing out his mouth/through the lips, opposed to breathing out through the nose?

[@BlueThunderboltsiren]

I remember when I started running when I was in 6th grade before I moved. I was running everyday, including when it got cold. I lost a lot of weight at that time. I'm 20 about to go back to college in the spring and starting work, and wanting to start running again. I'm on my fourth day running now. The reason I stopped running in half of 6th grade was because I moved, and I kinda wish it didn't stop me from running. But, here we are. My goal right now is to go a month without giving up running.

I always keep steps inhale + steps exhale uneven while running. It helped me so much against side stitches! It makes sure I don't have always the same foot-impact on the same part of my breathing. Like e.g. 3 steps in, 4 steps out

[@chugachugachewy]

I have a random tip for those side stitches. I don't know if it's scientifically correct, but it has worked for me for years. I told my friend about it and it worked for him too. Pinch and pull the skin on the area you're aching and hold it. You do have to run with only one arm pumping, but about after a minute or two, the pain goes away. Lol

I also often geting that fckn stitches at first 2 km. To get rid of it, I just concentrate to my breathing and synchronize it with my step. Sometimes I event count my breath to really focus on it.. After 20-30 breath the stitches is gone

[@fartmaster3]

side stiches are a result of bad breathing patterns. Always exhale when you put your left foot down. This is the first thing I learned in cross country and it really does help. If I remember correctly, its because of how the diaphram is shaped, and exhaling on your left foot gives it the most room i.e. it cramps less

[@Kelly_Ben]

I heard somewhere that nose breathing also releases parasympathetic something or other that lowers heart rate. I'm an asthmatic, and always depended on my inhaler, almost passing out after several races. Slowing down my easy runs and practicing nose breathing has actually weaned me off my inhaler, even during runs with strides and hills! (I always carry it though, just in case. )

[@EverFITcoach]

Slow nasal breathing helps stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system which helps keep the body & mind in a calmer state. I’ve used nasal breathing on longer runs to lower the heart rate & decrease perceived exertion. Thanks for commenting

[@GTE_Channel]

Thank Nate. 2:05 - is the part where I learned something new from your video. I can breathe deeply through my nose when I'm doing my daily pranayama, but when I'm running/jogging it is a bit challenging. This video inspired me to give myself a few more chances and train myself to consciously breathe through my nose even when I jog on the street.

When running, you should breathe in through your nose or mouth. Thank you very much

I broke my nose when I was younger and so find it quite difficult breathing through it while running. I tend to do a mix of both. Mainly in/out through my mouth but while chewing gum to keep my tubes lubricated and the odd few breaths in/out through my nose just to slow my breathing down if it’s getting too hyper.

Would love to see pointers from runners that suffer of rhinitis / asthma. Enjoy running, but my breathing is often dictated by my condition.

[@Kelly_Ben]

I have asthma. I needed my inhaler every run, and nearly passed out at the end of several races. (5k- half marathon) I switched to 50ks, which required me to actually slow down. I'm not a fast runner any more, so my ego was pushing me to run as fast as I could all the time. Once I slowed, I started practicing nose breathing on my easy runs. I find the 4 in 4 out via nose on flats, 3/3 on minor hills or when slightly faster, and then 2/2 with the exhale through the mouth, gets me through most speeds and hills. When I'm sprinting or doing serious hills, and breathe through my mouth, it's almost like getting an energy boost when I need it! And I haven't touched my inhaler in a year except for a brutal mountain race. (Though it's always with me. ) Give it a try, just ease in, I remember it took about 3 weeks of adding a few minutes to each run before I was comfortable.

That's one of the amazing video I've seen in running format......Btw I have a question bro, I have to run 1 mile(1600m) in 6 - 6:30 minutes. I currently have a timing of 7:08. My breathing pattern is 2-2(inhale for 2 steps and exhale for 2 steps). Only 3 days of practices left before my race. So can you suggest me something for instant improvement. I mean should I change my breathing pattern?

[@TheRunExperience]

Maybe try a more relaxed breathing pattern for the first 800m (say in 3 or 4 steps , out 3 or 4) then move to 2-2 to bring it home.

[@raghvendersinghrajput]

@@TheRunExperience You mean to say 3-4 steps inhale and 3-4 steps exhale for first 800m..?

[@iancunningham2440]

And yet, I find that mouth breathing allows for a lot more air to be inhaled, and uses a bit less muscle contraction in the short term (potentially why I feel a bit of a lower heart rate when I do so instead of nose breathing, when I'm doing an exercise to test or improve my overall fitness). To me, then, a question to consider is, when is it worth the extra air quality and respiratory system development (nose breathing pros), at the cost of the work of having to take bigger, faster inhalations (nose breathing cons)? Especially since there are ways to improve lung capacity outside of exercises that involve the main muscle groups (such as running)

[@dewikingdon4367]

I think (imo) nose running should be the standard for breathing as it promotes using deeper breathes form the diaphragm. Whereas mouth breathing can be effective giving you extra volumes of breath but you won’t be training the diaphragm to breath better, and also may promote inefficient breathing patterns (such as breathing from the chest, tensed). Just my take :)

Really useful. Thank you. Running aside, I read that breathing through your nose is also good for clearing out your sinuses, under eye bags and preventing double chins... Apparently breathing through your mouth relaxes facial muscles. I'm not sure how true it is but it's definitely worth checking in throughout the day that you're breathing through your nose (as you suggest).

When I take such deep breaths I see myself not needing to breathe at all for a few seconds after

[@runner1984]

Hard physical effort leaves no room to think and keeping your body always in motion helps to focus, concentrate on whatever you are doing. Making a coffee, I thought about that; listening to music, I am all music. Running feeling every step and muscle stretch.

Thanks for sharing

[@jacquelinebaclaya9321]

Thank you, These are great tips when it comes to my breathing technique while running. ✨

[@g4shi189]

Thank u soooo much,im gonna try these techniques because i have an army test soon ❤️💪🏼

[@wemheuer22]

Thanks so much. Had just finished the book by James Nestor and this helps to translate for running. Any advise on breathing out? In the Video it looks like you breath out through the mouth, so only the intake via the nose?

[@EverFITcoach]

As the intensity increases you may have to cross over to some mouth breathing- try to stick to nose breathing for as much as possible

When i first got into running on my journey to run for 3 miles without rest, i found out how to breathe like this after a while. It kind of clicked when i found the right rhythm to breathing with my steps. It seemed to have increased my enjoyment and also performance of the run. It was a different cadence than these but i think i will try these breathing rhythms next time i run.

Starts at 2:50

I've never been a runner. Breathing is a big thing that stops me. But also form. I just watched your video on form too. My feet tend to go numb and I have pain in my arches when I try to run ... I signed up for a family 5k at the end of October. So I'm getting ready to start the couch to 5k program and I'm looking at learning better breathing and form

[@TheRunExperience]

Let us know how you go. Thanks for watching

[@mariettamay]

3:47 didn't you breath in and out for 8 steps? I'm counting from what I can hear on the treadmill to remember the rhythm for my own training. now i'm just confused.

[@TheRunExperience]

Good question. The inhale/exhale step ratio will be slightly different for every individual. Work out a ratio that feels right for you using the vid info for general guidance.

[@PaulBlast-yz8td]

Soon as I saw him pull out the Nestor book, I knew he knew what he was talking about. 10/10 book.

[@TheRunExperience]

A great book

[@BanjoBumbleBee]

Started running today at the age of 32. Ran a mile and felt like throwing up. Thus I am here hahaha

[@TheRunExperience]

Just keep going. Stay within capacity, be consistent, and you will go far

[@nandapiyathilaka5789]

Thank sir .....I am 60 years old I am training 5 k race i think this will help me to run fast ...god bless you..

[@Miguel_Pratz]

Any thoughts on breathing in and out on even numbers as opposed to odds?? For example, of you breath in for 4 and out for 4, you are always breathing in and out on the same foot forward. Not sure if that has any impact on running long term, so figured I'd ask! Great video! 🫁🌬️

[@hektor6766]

I've used both 4/4 and 3/3 on runs, depending on effort or terrain. I feel bilaterally comfortable with both sequences. I feel as long as your head and torso are stable, odd or even sequences won't make a difference.

[@Exhalesior]

This is amazing! Great info - super useful, thank you!

[@TheRunExperience]

Thanks for feedback

[@michaelmulligan0]

Nasal breathing seems to make a big difference for me, also more relaxed and enjoyable run. Problem is actually being able to breath through me nose😢😖

[@EverFITcoach]

Keep practicing it. Like any skill it will become easier the more you employ it.

[@lucashAN-tk4oj]

thank you so much I have a cross country coming up and this helped a lot

[@TheRunExperience]

Let us know how your cross country goes! You might enjoy our video on XC

[@TheRunExperience]

Forget Track, Road, or Ultra….Cross Country Is King kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5eVl5uwprGYgNk

[@O8WRx]

You don't have a hard time breathing while running if you just don't run...or breathe. Checkmate.

[@TheRunExperience]

Brilliantly stated. Thanks for pointing that out

[@suresh-ke4py]

Your in wrong place go n watch shorts😂

[@lokochon]

This video was so helpful. I appreciate it sir.

[@CarterKingMinecraft]

When my mother run she run out of air

[@TheRunExperience]

Start slower even with a walk and build up time

[@akshayansasi1398]

thank u very much i will say a million thanks because tomorrow is my race for that this would be really helpfull

[@TheRunExperience]

Hope it went well

[@TheGhostOfFlex]

I’m cooked I got 12 days to figure out how I’m going to run a mile

[@TheRunExperience]

Start controlled, build into it. One foot in front of the other. You got this!

[@mf4450]

Oh thank you so much I will start running about three months ago it’s so hard for me to breathe👍🏿

[@TheRunExperience]

Keep up the habit.

[@RiSo1988]

I disagree with just breathing through nose. I have been running since 10 years with breathing with both, my nose and my mouth for the entire part of my runs, including half marathons (and in my last 21km, I spoke on a phone with a friend for like 10 kms and didn't get out of breath even once). I believe that while running its always good to have as much oxygen as possible, and it doesn't matter its coming in from nose or mouth or both.

[@charlenemungin5881]

Great advice, tomorrow I'm to run 1 mile in 16 minutes😮. Pray for me!

[@kevinabate6056]

Usually 85% peripheral O2 is good for most sessions. I find that sometimes I have both low O2 and low heart rate and that correlates to a strong muscular effort. Reoxygenation happens only after my heart rate jumps up after I relax from the effort. Prolonged anaerobic efforts will cause gut rot, because it will neutralize the acid in the stomach. A quick way to re-oxygenate is to hold your breath briefly for a few steps after you inhale for a little while and that will increase the amount of time that the same volume of oxygen is in the lungs. Sometimes a good workout means metering your effort based on your respiratory threshold, which may be very different from targeting different heart rate zones. Had to watch this twice.

[@EverFITcoach]

Thanks for commenting

[@CH4NNELZERO]

How can you measure peripheral O2 percentage when you are out running ?

[@taliesin1977]

Lol, I recognized almost all those locations in the Bay Area. East Crissy field to the Fort Point and back is one of my favorites.
