Do you know how to breathe when you’re lifting something heavy? And that simply breathing in and out at the right time can significantly reduce the risk of injury? Here’s how – 1.      Inhale through your nose: Before you start to lift, take a deep breath in through your nose. Engage your diaphragm to ensure you get air right down into your stomach, then 2.      Exhale through your mouth: Breathe out completely through your mouth during the lift. Remember to focus on expanding your stomach (rather than your chest) every time you breathe. This stabilises your spine and core, which is essential when lifting.
