What if one of the most powerful tools for improving your health, focus, and performance has been with you all along? In this episode of Moonshots, Mike and Mark explore the transformative ideas from James Nestor’s groundbreaking work on breathing, uncovering how something as simple as the way we breathe can dramatically influence our physical and mental wellbeing.
In a career spanning 15 years, Patrick McKeown has since also become a bestselling author and expert on the topic of optimal breathing for improved health, well-being, and fitness.
His book ‘The Oxygen Advantage’ is based on 4 years of scientific research and tailors breathing exercises for anyone seeking to improve their fitness and sports performance. ‘The Oxygen Advantage can revolutionize how we train, by addressing dysfunctional breathing patterns and simulating high altitude training through specific breath-holding exercises as devised by Patrick.
To supplement the show, we also recommend listeners to conduct the Body Oxygen Level Test (BOLT) to determine their relative breathing volume, as well as practise Patrick’s 1-hour workout to truly improve their breathing.
