Breathing facilitates correct muscle activation, and increases the safety of the exercises. Today you will practice Diaphragmatic Breathing. How to engage your deep transverse abdominal muscles to facilitate active lateral breathing. It’s important to focus on directing the breath into the sides of the ribs. Rather than the lower stomach. This keeps the abdominals activated when performing exercises. These breathing exercises may be challenging for you. And you may not master them all today.
