How should you breathe when lifting weights?!


Question: How should you breathe when lifting weights!?
Are you supposed to exale during the part when you lift!? Or exhale when you are releasing the weight!? I've heard people say both ways are right, and I don't know which is the healthiest!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hi!!

Proper breathing during exercises where you exert yourself - such as lifting, pushing, or pulling - is much easier to remember and control than the 3:2 ratio during running long distance!. To put it simply: always exhale on exertion!. For example, when you are pushing a bench press off your chest, you exhale on the push and inhale as you bring it slowly to your chest!. When you are doing a pullup, you exhale on the pulling up motion and inhale on the way down!. Breathing during exertion is important in preventing internal injury such as hernia, blood vessel strain, and high blood pressure!. Because weight lifting and PT can be potentially harmful when done incorrectly, it is advised to get clearance from a doctor before performing too much - too soon!. To decrease that pressure, focus on breathing deep all the time - during workouts and in your daily activities!.

Don't hyperventilate (breathe in and out fast) or hold your breath when you lift heavy weights!. You may faint and lose control of the weights!. Breathe out when you lift!.
