Hiya! I'm a pretty active teenager. I'll be trying to apply some OA exercises in every morning to get ready for the day. Thank you for creating such an amazingly informative video! 💗
-
Hi Jacko! Thanks for the great service being rendered. I am a newbie on this subject but I can learn fast. 😁 First doubt: what is the optimal interval between the 5 strong and challenging breath holds? Thanks.
-
Read the Oxygen Advantage in the summer but have slacked off some of the exercises from it that I was doing. Be great if you could take us through some of them and show us how you use them.
-
Thank you for the great information Subscribe done
-
AWESOME! God will bless you

Top info right here. I really don't know how to breath during exercise and it really takes a toll on my (amateur) performance. This of course comes from not breathing correctly for my entire life + smoking + no exercise. I would also enjoy some more info about Jacko's rugby career. Keep it up

Hi, thanks for the video, very informative. I have two questions though: 1) Why is it necessary to pinch the nose? I find it much easier to just hold my breath without pinching the nose. 2) How do low oxygen levels induced by breath-holds compare with altitude training when the first is just a temporary drop while the latter is a constant state of low oxygen? Thanks

I'm really glad to have found your video. So well explained. Can you tell me if it is dangerous to have a saturation below 80% during this type of exercice? I read that in an article. Guylaine Doucet (from Canada)

Very well explained Jacko! Thanks for the video. In the OA book Patrick says to do 8-10 breath holds, but you’re saying 5 is enough, correct? I often do 2-3 short ten minute walks each day. Do you think I’d see faster results by doing breath holds multiple times per day?
-
Hi Jacko , how many times should we do these breath holds or is it just once and should it be a daily thing as well or every few days ? Thanks John
-
So, 5 Breath Holds building up slowly. And how much rest between the Breath Holds?

I recognized your “Famous Enough” t-shirt as I have the same one but in green!!

HI been watching your vids and i just went for my first breath hold!!! i cant ignore the CO2 urge to breath!!! I try to ignore it but still have to breath when the urge comes!!! Even when i resist! After about 20 seconds!! What can i do? Thanks
-
Hello. So, I decided to try out doing breath holds every morning right as I wake up and clean myself. Yesterday in all 5 rounds I held my breath for 30 seconds. This time in the first round it is 25 seconds. Why did it decrease?

Hi Mate. Right. Can I ask your advice mate. I'm an M. E. Sufferer. I get breathless if I walk too far. I'm on a new raw vegan, diet. So I'm flushing, cleaning my cells out. Now I want to get my body's ability to take in more oxygen and use it. So should I do just 5 breath holds of just 10 secs? Everyday? Then increase it by say 2 seconds every 10 days or 2 weeks? I'm an x academic, guy I'm going to be very careful. But I think this can improve my health. Many thanks Richard
