Book • 2013
This book introduces a simple yet effective training method focused on rhythmic breathing.
It teaches readers how to perform rhythmic breathing while walking and running, which helps increase lung volume, improve awareness and control, prevent injuries and side stitches, and manage muscle cramps.
The book includes weeklong sample schedules, detailed training plans, and emphasizes the importance of stretching, cross-training, and core training.
Coates validates his method through a mix of accessible science, Eastern philosophy, and the experiences of test subjects, showing how focusing on breathing brings the mind and body into harmony for stronger, faster, and more comfortable running.
