Breathe Out for Blood Pressure

  • 15 years ago
http://TheBestWayToExercise.com Exhale on Exertion!! Never hold your breath during exercise. This is probably the most important safety principle. Trying to exhale with your throat (or glottis) closed can temporarily double, or even triple, your blood pressure. As a general rule, breathe out when you feel like you're exerting pressure (lifting weight and raising resistance); think “blow it up!” Then, breathe normally (in and out), as you release pressure during Eccentrics (lowering weight and resisting resistance). If in doubt − breathe out!!!
