Alex Megos's Secret To Climbing Harder 

My coach has been on me about my poor breathing for the last year and I'll give the viewers a piece of gold for free with a drill we've doing for that amount of time! Take a straw (cut it to a shorter length to be easier, a fingers length to start) and climb while inhaling through your nose and exhaling through the straw (do not exhale around the straw). Focus on the powerful exhale (kind of like a power scream) and you will feel your entire core engage. Practice this type of breathing on easy terrain until you learn the technique and then apply it to harder climbing or even endurance or power endurance laps. You can also tempo the breathing, for instance, 2 counts inhale, 4 counts exhale. It will take your breathing to the next level!

Total concentration, 1st form - bouldering 🔥

Fun thing, its something very common in discipline like running, powerlifting, swimming ... but in climbing its the first time i hear someone bring the subject.

Very inspiring climber

If want to learn abot breathing , Buddhism meditation will really help to be a better person !

I thought the secret for sending harder was carrots...

about the breathing part: I thought that was curious, especially, when I was in my teens. Just because I focused on breathing through my nose I was always the best in endurance in my class. I even broke a school record because of that. What I wonder though is why people start breathing through the mouth?

If you breathe it, you can achieve it.

If people tuned out of the everyday trends and routines they were taught they would come to realize all these "new" things come naturally. I notice everyone has the answers of other people but very few seem to understand their bodily functions

Tanjiro knows what you are talking about

Demon slayer was right!

Excellent Alex that you brought up this subject. Why inhaling through the nose is so important for maximum power: 1. The air is warmed up. 2. In the nose a gas is added to the air. This gas enables the lungs to take in about 15 % more of oxygen. More oxygen = more power/endurance. That is the reason too why it is important to sleep with the mouth shut! If you sleep with open mouth: Close your mouth with tape: a strip fixed parallel over your lips. It takes 2-3 nights to get accustomed to it. Bonus: if you are a kid/teenager: it prevents that your lower jaw becomes shorter than your upper jaw: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vm7rhNCgQSI.html More details: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zbzT00Cyq-g.html 3.
