Step Ladder Breathing for Brain Fuel & Performance - Duration: 8:20.
Today we're going to be looking at one of my very favorite breathing exercises.
I call is stepladder breathing.
You're going to love it.
If you've been around Z-Health any length of time, you've been watching the blogs, you
know that we put a big emphasis on respiration.
Obviously brains need fuel, and one of the best fuel supplies you can provide them is
excellent breathing.
One of the things that we talk a lot about are breathing mechanics and what you'll find
out in our program is that we're not completely sold in one direction or another because if
you read a lot about respiratory training some people say you need to do a lot of belly
breathing.
Other people say shallow breathing when you're not in motion.
In essence what we tell people is that we want you to have respiratory competency.
Respiratory competency, the way we describe it, means that if you need to belly breathe
and relax, you can do that but if you're out for a hard sprint, you need to use the full
lung field including upper chest breathing, which a lot of people tell you to avoid.
You also want to be able to do that.
You have muscles that are designed for inspiration, inhaling and exhalation.
What we want to make sure we do regularly is that we train each of these sets of muscles
in different ways.
Now if you look at again at a lot of breathing systems a lot of them are taught in lying
down positions or seated or standing, and that's awesome, but one of the things that
I love to get people to focus on is what I call stepladder breathing.
Now stepladder breathing accomplishes a couple different important things.
Number 1, we're going to work on starting low and working our way up into the chest
increasing our respiratory competency because we're going to inhale all the way up, and
we're going to exhale all the way up, focusing on one side of the body.
That's the stepladder process.
The second thing that we focus on in this one is bending this way.
If you look at a lot of exercise programs lots of people are doing side planks now,
and they're trying to strengthen the sides of the body but in general whenever we watch
people move one of the least mobile motions that we see people have is lateral bending,
head going sideways, body going sideways.
In this exercise we combine both, and the results are often quite spectacular.
Let's get started with stepladder breathing.
Step number 1 is we're going to work on breathing into one side of the body.
Now I know that you can't really do that, but you can focus your efforts on one side.
I'm going to start on my right side and what I'm going to do is I'm going to put my hand
on my lower abdomen.
I'm going to take a couple breaths in and out.
I want to feel my abdomen expand on the inhale, compress on the exhale, so we'll just do that
a couple of times.
Now feel that motion.
Next if you have the mobility I want you to put one hand on your lower back and the other
hand on the lower abdomen.
Now you're trying to feel a three-dimensional expansion so whenever you breathe in your
want to feel your abdomen going forward, your back expanding a little bit and maybe even
a little motion out to the side.
Think about filling the balloon of the lower abdomen.
You can do a couple breaths there, and then you're going to do the same process in your
lower ribs.
I'm just going to go ahead and skip over a couple of these.
We'll go to the three-dimensional version, so one hand on the lower ribs, another hand
on the lower ribs and back.
Take that deep breath in, fill the balloon.
You're trying actually to drive the ribs out to the side a little bit as you breathe.
One more.
Good.
You see I close my eyes sometimes.
It helps you focus internally to figure out what is it that I'm trying to accomplish.
Then our last step we're going to actually come to the upper chest.
You have some muscles up here, your pectoral muscles even that attach to your ribs and
help lift your ribs in breathing.
One hand on the upper chest.
Now if you can reach your shoulder with your opposite hand you can do that.
If you can't, lean against a wall.
Get some pressure against the shoulder blade, a couple more breaths in and out.
Again, just work on expanding that upper feel.
Awesome.
Now we've done lower, middle and upper.
Now for the stair step.
Again, we're just doing this in standing, so we're going to start at the lower portion.
We're going to go to the lower ribs and then the upper ribs, and you're going to try to
do this in a chain.
Start lower.
It feels really, really good, and you may be feeling actually some interesting stretching
sensations in different portions of the right side of your body.
Once you have the basic stair step in place, now it's time to add in the bend.
I start off with an easy version of this because if you've had back issues or other things
I want you to take it really easy.
You're going to get into a neutral stance, you're going to bend your knees slightly.
I like to have people tuck the pelvis a little bit as well.
Now I just want you to do a light bend away from the side that you're going to fill up.
If your stepladder is on the right, you're going to bend on the left.
Bend to the left, start low, next, next.
Then on the exhale reverse it, walk back down the ladder.
Then come back up.
That may have been a lot more intense for you.
When you get into this lateral bend position you can feel a lot of different again sensations.
You may feel some stretching sensations or other things going on, perfectly normal and
okay.
You want to do maybe four or five breaths there and then get on with doing the opposite
side.
Now version three is a lot more intense, and that's why I've been standing by this rack
the entire time because in version three what I'm going to do is I'm going to get into my
neutral stance.
I'm going to bend my knees.
I'm going to tuck my pelvis.
I'm then going to bend sideways, reach up and grab the bar.
Once I grab the bar I'm going to push my hips out to the side a little bit.
This increases the stretch a lot in this area.
When you start off with this particular version make sure that your breath is a little less.
Don't try to overfill as you walk up the ladder, so that you can get accustomed to the position.
Again I'm going to be here.
I'm going to get that stretch in.
I'm going to take that deep breath.
Start low.
Again, I'm working up and down the ladder.
All right guys, let's summarize stepladder breathing.
Step number one, we have to learn how to breathe on one side of the body from the lower section
to the upper section.
Step one is practicing two or three breaths just into the lower abdomen on the front.
Then the lower ribs on the front.
Then the upper ribs on the front.
Once you've done that you then go back and do three-dimensional breathing.
You go back to the lower portion, you put a hand on the front and a hand on the back,
and you try to expand three-dimensionally like you're blowing up a balloon.
Remember we're only working on one half of the body.
You do that on the lower section, the middle section and then the upper section, if you
can reach, you do it with your hand.
Otherwise, one hand on the front, lean against a wall.
Those are the basic breathing practices.
Once you've done that, you then try and do full stepladder breathing where you start
at the lower section, you breathe up, up, up, up into one side and then walk back down
the ladder.
That's done in a neutral stance.
From there you're going to bend your knees, tuck the pelvis.
You're going to bend away from the side that you're breathing into.
Repeat your stepladder two or three times.
Then finally if you're feeling like you've got some decent mobility you're going to move
over until you can grab onto something, a pull-up bar, the top of a door, something
comfortable.
You settle into that, you push your hip out a little bit, get more of a stretch, and then
you practice your breathing there, and that's it.
Those are your basic steps for stepladder breathing.
Give it a shot.
Do it on both sides of the body and if you are familiar with Z-Health principles of assessing
and reassessing, check your motion before and after.
Most people respond super, super well to this drill.
The other big thing I want to mention is after you're done this if you have an opportunity,
take a walk with your new found mobility and let it settle in.
If you have any questions about this guys, let us know.
Thanks.

Uber says it will have 'zero' tolerance for drivers who turned violent during protest.
Uber South Africa said it will have zero tolerance for drivers who turned violent during Tuesday's protest in Greenpoint‚ Cape Town.
"We are currently speaking to authorities to conduct a full and thorough investigation into the violence that occurred in Green Point today‚ in order to confirm if any of these drivers involved are using our app‚" said general manager for Uber Sub-Saharan Africa Alon Lits.

Lits said the grievances drivers expressed during Tuesday's protest could be communicated to the company through any of the available channels.
"We respect drivers as valuable partners with a voice and a choice and we want drivers to feel they can talk to us about their individual concerns at any time‚" he said.
On the issue of fares‚ Lits said they were constantly monitoring the fare system to ensure drivers and passengers were getting value for money when making use of the app.
"We're committed to supporting the men and women who drive with Uber across South Africa and we understand that fuel is one of the biggest weekly expenses for drivers‚ which is why drivers can also access rewards that help them reduce costs and keep more of their earnings.
"This exclusive programme provides deals such as fuel rebates‚ cell phone deals‚ maintenance and healthcare‚" Lits said.
City of Cape Town spokesperson Richard Coleman said four Uber drivers were arrested and three vehicles were impounded in Greenpoint.
"At approximately 10am this morning‚ Uber drivers blocked the road outside the Traffic Department in Green Point.
Traffic officers were called to the scene to clear the roadway.
On arrival the Uber drivers got out of their vehicles.

There were four Uber drivers arrested for assault‚ illegal gathering and illegal protesting.
Three vehicles were also impounded for obstructing.
The roadway was cleared at 12.20pm." .

Sudan overturns death sentence for teen who killed her husband after he raped her - Duration: 4:34.
Sudan overturns death sentence for teen who killed her husband after he raped her
CNN is committed to covering gender inequality wherever it occurs in the world. This story is part of As Equals, a year-long series.
A Sudanese court has overturned the death sentence for teenager Noura Hussein, who killed her husband after he raped her, in a case that has put a spotlight on forced child marriage and marital rape in the African nation.
Her legal team told CNN on Tuesday that Hussein, now 19, has been given a five-year jail term for killing the 35-year-old man. The court ordered her family to pay 337,000 Sudanese pounds ($18,700) in "blood money" to the man's family.
Her lawyers say they plan to appeal both the jail term and the payment. Last week, CNN obtained a first-hand account from the teenager as she awaited retrial in an Omdurman prison cell after appealing her death sentence.
In her account, Hussein said her family had forced her to get married at 15, but allowed her to finish school. Three years later, after a public wedding, her husband tried to consummate the marriage.
After refusing to have sex with him on their "honeymoon," she says he raped her as members of his family held her down. A day later her husband tried to rape her again, and she stabbed him to death.
When she went to her parents for support, they turned her over to the police.
In her account, Hussein shared her experience of being forced to live with the man, and how she refused to eat or leave her room in her first days with him.
"On the ninth day his relatives came, his uncle told me to go to the bedroom. I said no so he dragged me by my arm into the bedroom and his cousin slapped me.
All of them tore at my clothing. His uncle held me down by my legs and each of the other two held down my arms. He stripped and had me while I wept and screamed. Finally, they left the room.
I was bleeding, I slept naked," she said. "The next day he grabbed me, threw me on the bed and tried to climb on top of me.
I was fighting back and my hand found a knife under the pillow. We began grappling over the knife. He cut my hand and bit down on my shoulder." The court made its decision after accepting Hussein's version of events.
Key to their decision was accepting that she had found a knife under her pillow before stabbing her husband, and did not take it from the kitchen, as prosecutors originally alleged.
The case has sparked international outrage and several petitions worldwide had called for her sentence to be dropped. The legal age to enter into marriage in Sudan is 10 and marital rape is not a crime.
In a statement, Amnesty International said that Hussein's case must be a "catalyst for change" in Sudan.
"While the quashing of this death sentence is hugely welcome news, it must now lead to a legal review to ensure that Noura Hussein is the last person to go through this ordeal," said Seif Magango, Amnesty International's Deputy Regional Director for East Africa, the Horn and the Great Lakes.
"Noura Hussein was the victim of a brutal attack by her husband and five years' imprisonment for acting in self-defense is a disproportionate punishment.
"The Sudanese authorities must take this opportunity to start reforming the laws around child marriage, forced marriage and marital rape, so that victims are not the ones who are penalized.".

Kennedy Center Unveils Progress On New Extension For Artistic Projects - Duration: 5:04.
Kennedy Center Unveils Progress On New Extension For Artistic Projects
Kennedy Center President Deborah Rutter told reporters Tuesday that the spirit of President John F.
Kennedy informs just about everything the Center does, including its new expansion called The REACH.
The REACH "came about from President Kennedy's aspirational, ever-hopeful vision for our nation," said Rutter, at a "first look" tour of the site.
"He encouraged us to reach for dreams, for those moonshot moments that would move us forward.".
The name has been explained as Renew, Experience, Activate, Create and Honor the legacy of Kennedy.
Movement is central to the experience the Kennedy Center is trying to achieve with The REACH.
Curved walls, light-filled, flexible performance spaces and views of the flowing Potomac River all contribute to the effect.
Architect Steven Holl says "the swooping lines" were "inspired by glissando in music," fitting for a campus where professional performers, apprentices, summer campers and audiences will intentionally commingle.
Rutter says research shows that people come to the Kennedy Center to interact with one another.
"They want the artistic experience, but also spaces where they can be together.".
At different spots along the tour, musicians and dancers performed, giving hard hat-wearing reporters a sense of how the spaces will be used.
For superior acoustics, theaters and studios have "crinkle concrete walls," that look almost cave-like.
Anyone who's been around Washington long enough will tell you The Kennedy Center's original building has been the subject of much groaning over the decades.
The 1971 building is an immense, white marble edifice with gold pillars that some have found royally uninviting.
Just before it opened, New York Times architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable said it looked like a "superbunker." She wrote the Kennedy Center was like other monuments in Washington, D.C., a city she said seemed to prefer "the big, the bland and the banal." The REACH is clearly a departure.
The Kennedy Center is also difficult for to get to without a car.
The expansion aims to change that with a pedestrian bridge that will connect the Center with the National Mall and with other memorials.
Rutter wants the federally funded institution to be accessible to as many people as possible, whether they attend a performance or not.
She envisions bicyclists taking a break to visit a new 130,000 square foot "green roof" that will include gardens, walking paths and a 35-tree gingko grove.
That green roof is still a gray, concrete surface surrounded by heavy construction equipment.
The Kennedy Center has raised $170 million in private donations to create The REACH.
While showing off the potential of these new, dynamic spaces, the Center also announced the budget has increased to $250 million.
In a statement the Kennedy Center says the increase is due to "sustained philanthropic interest in the campaign, ongoing programmatic opportunities, and increased project costs.".
The REACH is scheduled to open to the public Sept.
7, 2019.
