lower abs breathing in SLT

[Robinhood]

No, I thought you were. I don't wish to develop internal skill.

There are two types of respiration- cellular respiration and physiological respiration. Physiological respiration is the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen between the environment and the body through the lungs. Technically, breathing is separate from each of these, but is required for both of them to occur.

Abdominal breathing is not natural, nor is chest breathing. Natural (and the most efficient breathing) is to use both the diaphram and the intercostal muscles. This is the type of breathing that endurnace athletes use. Also they don't have to having to "train" or "learn" how to do this.

The lower abdominal muscles have nothing to do with breathing.

Here is the bottom line, natural is best. The problem comes from the body usually stops being natural the older you get. You are born and stay natural for a number of years, then tension starts to develop in the body at all different places for different reasons, and now you don't breath or do anything natural . So getting the tension and stiffness and over thinking out of the body and mind will help you get back to natural body, which will bring natural breathing.
