Walk into any fitness center, exercise arena or weight-training room and you will hear a lot of heavy breathing. It is an essential element in lifting weights because breathing properly will increase the effectiveness of the workout. Breathing improperly can lead to high blood pressure and sometimes serious medical problems. Any person who lifts weights or performs similar resistance training needs to learn correct breathing technique.
A doctor is performing a check up. Shortness of breath or breathing difficulties can have several causes, including asthma, emphysema, heart disease or anxiety. One cause of several health problems that may present with breathing difficulties is being overweight. In some cases, losing weight may help if you have difficulty breathing.
