  • What an episode with Dr. Courtney!.

    I was training to be a ‘transformational’ (similar to holtropic) breathwork guide for a few years that started during Covid. My teacher hadn’t even taken a course on the physiology of breathwork until last February. She wasn’t open to hearing about the other techniques I was learning about. Dr. Courtney hit every mistake she made. This podcast was transformational 💚

#122 Leo Pelagotti The Olympic Breath Coach Reveals The 5 Dimensions of Breathing for Health
Q: Can you give us a flavour, what other ones are you looking at? How else would you measure someone's breathing?
I always start with a quality check and let them observe how they breathe without changing it. I also check their breathing frequency and perform both control pause and maximum breathlessness tests.
#122 Leo Pelagotti The Olympic Breath Coach Reveals The 5 Dimensions of Breathing for Health
Q: What technique would you use with an athlete before they go out to the event if they're feeling quite nervous?
I make them work on very simple techniques, like a double exhale time on the inhale that you can do walking, talking, sitting, whatever you want.
#122 Leo Pelagotti The Olympic Breath Coach Reveals The 5 Dimensions of Breathing for Health
Q: What breathing exercises? What could we learn as the audience here? What would you be doing with those athletes?
I used some 4, 7, 8 breathing techniques and engaged in a synergetic approach of multiple techniques, using diaphragmatic breathing and yogic breathing in different moments.
