Want to learn the three best breathing techniques that not only help to relieve my asthma symptoms, these breathing techniques have empowered me to become a highly successful ultra endurance athlete with asthma. In this episode I share how I went from using my inhaler all the time to learning special ways to breathe so I can run 100K+ miles without needing my inhaler.


The three best breathing techniques are:



  • The Extended Exhale - Breathe out longer to help calm your lungs.

  • Locomotive Breathing - Find a rhythm to make breathing feel natural while moving.

  • The Double Exhale - Double breaths out to keep asthma symptoms in check.
