A Late Breath Makes The Sinking Leg Problem Worse. Learn The Breathing Rhythm That Will Fix It.

What's Inside

From the Guide:

When you turn your head too late to breathe, you don't have enough time to get air unless you rotate your body further than you can control. When you return your head too late, you stay in that over-rotated position longer than your body can handle, triggering all the compensation patterns that sink your legs.
