Breathing Exercise 呼吸练习
Breathing Technique for Endurance Running 耐力跑呼吸技巧
Rhythmic 4-4 nasal breathing synchronised with your stride improves running economy and delays fatigue. Training your breath before race day builds the habit so it holds under exertion.
与步伐同步的4-4节律鼻式呼吸提升跑步经济性并推迟疲劳。在赛前训练呼吸习惯，确保在高强度运动下也能保持。

How to Practice
- Before your run, practise the pattern seated: inhale through your nose for 4 counts, exhale through your nose for 4 counts.
- During your warm-up, begin coordinating breath with footfalls — inhale over 4 steps, exhale over 4 steps.
- Maintain nasal breathing as long as pace allows. Switch to mouth breathing only when nasal breathing cannot sustain your effort.
- If breathing becomes ragged, slow your pace until the 4-4 rhythm returns before building speed again.
- After the run, use 5 minutes of slow 4-8 breathing to shift into recovery mode.
如何练习
- 跑步前坐着练习节律：用鼻腔吸气数4拍，再用鼻腔呼气数4拍。
- 热身时开始将呼吸与步伐协调——吸气4步，呼气4步。
- 尽可能保持鼻式呼吸。只有在鼻式呼吸无法维持强度时才改用嘴呼吸。
- 若呼吸变得混乱，放慢步伐直至4-4节律恢复后再提速。
- 跑步后用5分钟缓慢4-8呼吸切换至恢复模式。
