Quotes to ponder:

"A breath is a breath, no matter when you take it, but trust me when you start seriously working out, you’ll notice how breath can not only impact your oxygen levels but also your power output."

"A short way to remember this is 'Exhale With Exertion.'"

"Inhale deeply, focusing not on inhaling into your chest, but into your belly and the bottom of your lungs."
