In part III of their discussion on all things breathing, Bill and Chris shift the focus to specific types of breathing positions based on structural archetypes and biases. It is a myth that everyone should breathe the same and do the same exercises. We will get into why the intensity of breathing matters, what positional breathing exercises people should do, and why we have varying structural presentations. #breathing #breathingmechanics #breathwork #yoga #backpain #stressrelief LIKE the podcast to help other see it COMMENT on YT with any questions you might have and let’s start a discussion SHARE it with anyone who you know is stuck in the land of fitness confusion JOIN the RECON training program: Interested in learning more about Bill and Chris’s fitness program RECON?
