Research
- Amygdala-driven apnea and the chemoreceptive origin of anxiety
Proposes that amygdala-triggered breathing pauses cause CO₂ buildup, activating chemoreceptors and provoking anxiety and panic responses.
- Influence of breathing strategies on maximal strength output and hemodynamic parameters during bench press exercise
Found that breathing strategy during maximal bench press substantially influences both performance volume and perceived exertion.
- The influence of breathing techniques on physical sport performance: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Slow-paced breathing improved physical sport performance in longer-term interventions, while short-term applications showed no significant effect.
