Extended data

When running, consciously coordinate the rhythm of your feet and the rhythm of breathing. Generally speaking, according to your physical condition and running speed, you can take two steps, two steps, or three steps. When breathing rhythm adapts to running rhythm and becomes a habit, shortness of breath and rhythm disorder can be avoided, which is very beneficial to deepening breathing depth. At the same time, it can also reduce the fatigue of respiratory muscles and reduce the adverse reactions caused by "pole" when running.

Breathe in through your nose while running. Breathing through the nose and running rhythm can meet the oxygen demand in the body. With the increase of running distance and intensity, the demand for oxygen increases, and the breathing mode of mouth and nose should be changed. Inhale and exhale slowly, thin and long, and open your mouth slightly when exhaling, so as to avoid quick breathing or big breathing. Shortness of breath and poor sense of breathing during running are due to insufficient exhalation and insufficient discharge of carbon dioxide, which occupies alveoli and limits the inhalation of oxygen. If you want to increase the expiratory volume, you must exhale through your mouth and consciously increase the expiratory volume and time.
