How to adjust your breathing while running?

It is very important to control your breathing rhythm while running. Many people do not control their breathing properly during running and they have stomach pain before they have run very far. Mastering your breathing method can not only get rid of this problem, but also effectively help us improve our running speed. Let's learn how to adjust your breathing while running.

When you first start practicing, you should emphasize breathing naturally.

In the initial stage of middle and long distance running training, you should emphasize natural breathing. Because at the beginning of practice, since students are not proficient yet, they pay too much attention to the coordination of breathing and steps. The breathing becomes a little too artificial, which leads to stiff movements, and in turn creates body incoordination, unnatural breathing, and difficulty in taking care of the ups and downs. At this time, there is no question of close coordination of breathing and steps or soft and slender breathing. Therefore, when students first start practicing, we should emphasize that they should breathe naturally, keep their minds calm and their bodies relaxed. On this basis, we should emphasize the coordination with their steps, which will achieve better results.

In the proficiency stage, we should emphasize awareness and emphasize the coordination of breathing and footwork.

When students have gradually established complete and correct technical concepts and have reached the technical requirements of middle- and long-distance running, that is, standard movements and coordinated and smooth coordination between breathing and steps, it is time to emphasize breathing awareness and highlight the close coordination of breathing and steps, to achieve the state of "no moves are better than moves" as described in martial arts novels. During this stage, students' running posture became relaxed and natural, their breathing was smooth, and their middle and long distance running test scores also improved by leaps and bounds. Moreover, the time when the "extreme point" appears is getting shorter and shorter, and the reaction when the "extreme point" appears is getting smaller and smaller. It should be said that the improvement of middle and long distance running performance is achieved by constantly overcoming the "extreme point". It can be seen that the quality of breathing rhythm plays a vital role in the quality of middle and long distance running performance.

How to adjust breathing while running is indeed a particularly important part of the running process. Reasonable adjustment of breathing can more effectively improve our running speed and mileage, which will be of greater help to ourselves. At the same time, we must also strengthen physical exercise in daily life.
