The fitness program you practice must promote healthy breathing.

Breathing correctly while you are exercising is important for a variety of reasons, but the most important reason is to do with the vital role oxygen plays in transforming the shape, tone and condition of your muscles.

Only when you breathe correctly will you be able to relax, and only when you are relaxed will you be able to feel what is going on inside your body to make the necessary adjustments you need to achieve your best results.

 With your blood-flow sufficiently conditioning will be able to relax oxygenated, the muscle you are and participate in the controlled contraction and release process, necessary for improvement.

Practicing healthy breathing techniques will also help you to remain calm and in full control of your exercise activity. You’ll feel more balanced and less anxious.
