Sports & breathing: this is what you want to know

Today, let's talk about something no one actually talks about when it comes to exercising your breathing.

Because whether you're running, strength training, or dragging yourself through a HIIT class, your breathing plays a much bigger role than you think.

Here's what we know now:

If you breathe too much while exercising, you will perform less well.

You then exhale too much CO₂, making it less easy for your blood to deliver oxygen to your muscles. So less efficient.

When you breathe consciously through your nose, you exercise smarter.

Nasal breathing retains more CO₂, allowing oxygen to reach your muscles better. You move more sparingly, recover faster and last longer.

And when you learn to train your breath, you'll get more out of every effort.

Your body works more efficiently, your muscles get what they need, and you feel more power with less effort.

The Pebbles in your sports routine

Breathing training doesn't have to be complicated.

With the right tool, it's surprisingly easy. That's why the Pebbles were developed: a breathing coach in your hand that helps you to activate rest, recovery and focus at all times.

Many people use the Pebbles for stress or sleep problems, but they are also used by people who want to become fitter, sharper and more energetic. Athletes, runners and coaches now know that breathing is just as important as training and nutrition.

So use the Pebbles not only in case of anxiety, but also after your workout, before an important moment or just in between.
