How to Use Aerobic Breathing for Weight Loss - Breath Your Way Thin

Believe it or not, you can breath your way to a thin and beautiful you...part of the problem with most exercise routines is that new users become discouraged early in the process and fail to continue the program because they believe it's too hard...why not start with something simple? Aerobic Breathing is an easy way to jump start weight loss and definately a program you can stick to!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• You!

1. Drop your skepticism...step one is to believe in the process and remember that breathing techniques have been used to improve health and wellness for centuries!

2. Sit up straight and exhale all air from your lungs.

3. Inhale sharply through your nose, filling your lungs to capacity. You should feel your lungs "stretch".

4. Forcibly exhale (exhale with great force) all the air from your lungs and hold...don't breath in or out...just hold.

5. Pull your stomach in and roll your organs under your ribcage...nothing fancy, just pull your bellybutton toward your spine.

6. Hold your "no breathing belly move" for as long as you can without straining and then inhale again...After that - REPEAT!

7. I find most success in this technique by doing 10 to 20 breaths before light weight training ( I do 10 before weight bearing exercise and about 10 to 20 after - depending on my mood). If you're not planning on weight bearing exercise for a particular day, just the breathing and some stretching will provide you with excellent benefits. I have found extra engergy and seen great results!!
