Testing to Identify Respiration Limiters
Coach Steve Neal helps athletes develop their respiratory systems to improve performance. Find out how the testing works, the limiters it exposes, and what you can do to start training your own breathing.
Could Respiration Be Your Limiter?
Athletes spend much of their time training their legs and heart. What about our lungs? Steve Neal breaks down the components of respiration to help explain why it could be holding you back.
Environmental Pollution, Health, and Performance, with Dr. Michael Koehle
Should we modify how, where, and when we train based on our potential exposure to pollutants?
How Breathing Is Impacted When Training in the Cold
Breathing cold, dry air while training outdoors can feel painful, but does it hamper your performance? Dr. Stephen Cheung explores.
