  Breathless when jogging breathing through the nose

"I, like a few of my friends have taken up many cardio exercises in the last year. Even though we train hard and regularly we always find ourselves very out of breath even doing light jogging.

I wanted to know if we were breathing correctly and scoured the web for information on proper breathing techniques and that's when I came across you're website. I had never before heard of breathing through the nose only and this seemed to make sense after reading some of your articles. I then decided to introduce your site to a couple of friends and they were also intrigued by the information on breathing techniques.

I have tried this method and it wasn't as taxing as i first thought it would be. I am however needing to breath through my mouth now and then especially when faced with a steep incline. I read that at first its a little difficult and gets easier as time progresses. I hope this is the case and would like any more information you have on this fascinating topic so that i could better help myself and educate others in this possible technique.

I have spoken to several hardcore joggers about this and non of them have heard of this before. I look forward to any more information you can give me."
