    Breathing Technique

    I am still working on my breathing technique every run.. not always ...free and relaxed as I would like...However, I reckon maybe, even if endurance was the limiting factor...it would just mean that the runner using the technique would be force to run slower until such time the endurance...

    Pavement vs Treadmill

    I can run long way on pavement and not worry about blisters....20 minutes on the treadmill and I more often than not get some especially doing a fairly fast run...No substitute for fresh air and scenery... winters are OK South Australia...we are lucky that way.

    Breathing Technique

    I can't quite run 100% HR with my mouth closed, but can run comfortably through my nose at 85-90% HR. However, I still inhale through my nasal and exhale through my mouth when running flat out. This is more towards a Buteyko technique. Nasal breathing has been suggested by non-other than...

    Breathing Technique

    After a while the breathing becomes more instinctive just like when you initially start running with a proper technique and you have to be aware of the cadence of 180's odd...eventually you work it out and don't even think of it...I find that now unless I do a MAX 100% HR effort...after a finish...

    Breathing Technique

    I only do this technique so that I can run as relaxed, smooth and as soft as I can. I am building up miles to eventually do some Ultra's ...already run half and fulls...and to battle fatigue is hard enough in a super long race... However, I love just running and running...be it slow or fast...

    Breathing Technique

    Hi Larry, I guess some people feel suffocated or feel strange just using the nasal passages. However, if you care to google it there is plenty of both scientific and medical evidence that this is better for you and that by slowing your breathing your are actually absorbing O2 much more...

    Breathing Technique

    Yes , I agree keep it simple. For people just starting out. I would maybe suggest just try simply breathing through your nose when you run. You will find it really diffciult initially and feel like your are suffocating. But I guarantee is gets betters as your diaphragm muscles gets stronger...

    Breathing Technique

    I agree with the deep end of the controversy pool argument. I am too jaded to get into a debate over this issue , but I am happy to discuss it with anyone who wants to learn more. In martial Arts, breathing is one of the most important factor in gaining strength , power and balance. Even in...

    Breathing Technique

    I would like to add a little more inofrmation about my transtion. You will initially be limited by your ability to breath through your nasal passage and actually run alot slower. If feel almost suffocating . However, if you look at nose being the speed limiter, then as you get better at it you...

    Breathing Technique

    I have adopted Nasal Breathing..for me anyway...it has improved my heartrate and lactate levels. I also feel very relaxed while running now. It was quite difficult to transition into this ofrm of breathing, as your diaphragm muscle has to develop much more. But if you research Buteyko Breathing...

    Stupid Injuries unrelated to running caused during a run. Sigh

    Hi Folks, I feel like the fourth stooge sometimes. Went on a 25km run today, wearing a cap which I don't usually do. I had to cross under a series of concrete bridges about 10km into the run, you have to stoop slightly to get under them. I navigated the first one fine, then in the process if...
