Anatomy of breathing

Learn the primary and secondary muscles of breathing

In this course we explore the Primary and secondary muscles involved in breathing so you can then apply the correct biomechanical breathing techniques and protocls

Biochemistry of breath

Understanding gas exchange and energy production

The purpose of breathing is to deliver oxygen to the cells to make energy. In this course we explore how three key gasses, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Nitic oxide make this happen

Breathing and your mind
