What is the purpose of breathing in thru the nose and out of the mouth during exercise?
In: Biology
It helps ensure you’re taking a full breath as well as just breathing. You’d be surprised at how often people will hold their breath when straining themselves.
It’s also to more focus you on something. You focus on breathing deeper, getting more oxygen as well as helping to calm and clear your mind.
If I’m not mistaken it slows your breathing and gives the lungs a chance to grab more oxygen before you exhale.
