How do you breathe?

[Drag187]

Im high, and this is all i keep wondering. I personally breathe through the mouth, but i dont keep my mount gaping open, just enough to breathe lol. :rastasmoke:

[Mohksha]

I breathe only through my nose. That is a thing to think about when high. I am also high.
You should make a poll for this.

[geonagual]

I mostly breathe through my nose...when I am exercising I breathe through both, but will trade off as needed...

[Gothen]

I breathe through my nose but during times of intense concentration my mouth opens ever so slightly to help get that blood to the brain!

[WakingDream]

The nose is there to filter the air you breathe.

Another good breathing question would be "do you breathe in your upper chest or lower stomach?"

[aeonblue11]

or how do you breathe as in...

do you suck in air causing your lungs to expand?

or do you expand your lungs, which creates a vaccuum, and sucks air in?

[Markass]

nose pretty much

[JDMBoy420]

nose, but trade off as needed...

[Nightstar]

both having constant allergies makes it hard breathing only through my nose...

[happytrees7]

I come from a long line of mouth breathers

[Old Stoner]

Nose, but when toking, I inhale through both.

[birdgirl73]

Nose. Unless it's stopped up from allergies.

If I'm exercising hard, I breathe through both nose and mouth.

[Old Stoner]

Yea, most trainers say in through the nose, out through the mouth, but, I'll have to admit....

I almost answered the question "wheezingly", he, he, he....

[silkyblue]

Ive always taken air in through my nose even when working out, or relaxing, etc...

[wholapola]

Negative intra-pleural pressure "helps" the air to enter your lung. It's just different pressure gradients at any given moment.

[slipknotpsycho]

depends..... probably about nose 65% and mouth 35% ...

if i take my trazadone i have no choice what soever, it has to be mouth.... if i'm tired/exhausted (As in after running) mouth... most of the other time it's through my nose

[robo scat]

Depends on a lot of things. I'd say 60% Nose 40% Mouth. And I can't breathe very well either. :|

I like to breathe through my nose, but the last year or so I have been getting a partially blocked and fully blocked nose. I breathe through my mouth when it is too hard to breathe.
I feel for people who have the same problem as its god damn awful. Sometimes when it is blocked its makes me panic because I cant breathe through it. Also breathing through the mouth gives me cotton mouth.

[trainwreck530]

when im hitting the bench or deadlift, it is both.

if im on a run i always breath in my nose and out my mouth.

i guess sometimes i sleep with my mouth open but i cant remember it

[king of the world]

nose............

[burnable]

do you mouth-breathers use a lot of chap-stick? I like the medicated kind. I breathe through my nose surprisingly well after having an elective rhinoplasty in 2003.

I try to train my lungs to expand through the lower stomach. i heard on a health show once that it's healthier somehow.

[DAY-DREAMER-MAN]

My lips are always chapped and im a mouth breather 70% of the time. Yea it sux, lol. But yea i seem to breathe through my lower stomache when i inhale from my mouth but, breathe through my chest when i inhale through the nose. Werid huh?:wtf:

[beedro]

I breathe through my mouth most of the time. The only time I breathe through my nose is when i'm really high and sorta just forget to open my mouth...or maybe breathing through my nose takes less energy in that state.:jointsmile::thumbsup:

[thecreator]

I love to breathe through my nose but I have allergies a few months out of the year and the rest of the time its 85 or 90 outside so I have the air going and low and behold I get sick and end up breathing out of my mouth.

Oh yea I thought you were supposed to breath with both when you work out as a way to expand your lungs. IDK I saw something on Lance A. and he has it down to when we take two deep breaths that is the equivalent of one of his......Super kinky if I do say so myself.

[robo scat]

Yeah.. my lips are always chapped too.

[pass_the_dubbie]

Ha!
I was just thinking about that when I was running..I was trying in through the mouth..out the nose...ended up painting the pavement green...:wtf:
yeah im tripping :hippy:

[potsmokingnome]

My nose is fucked up, so i have to breathe from my mouth. When i was 11 I crashed my bike and knocked my self unconscious and woke up in a little pool of blood, chipped my front tooth, and since then my nose has never been the same, and it makes me have a nasal voice i hate it...

[GraziLovesMary]

I breathe through my nose and open my mouth when I higher volume of air is needed.

I always try to breath by sticking my stomach out first, and filling my lungs up from the bottom, all the way up, ending by extending my chest out as my stomach goes in a bit. When I breath out, I do the reverse. It is the Tai Chi way.
