In this week’s episode of Form, Function, and Flow Lab, I talked about getting that lateral breath in your rib cage. We’ve done a lot of talking on breathing, but today I want you to check your rib cage and see if you have a barrel chest or a compact ribcage. You have to know that having either affects your breathing.
In this episode we discuss:
[00:37] Introduction to the topic
[3:13] Intercostal expansion breathing
[4:39] The proper breathing for the newly postpartum or those who are barrel-chested
[6:52] The proper breathing for those who have compact ribcages
[9:32] Not being stuck in being barrel-chested or having a compact ribcage
[11:18] One way to know if you have a rib flare or the narrowing of the rib cage
[12:08] Asymmetry of the rib cage
[12:48] Conclusion
If you have any questions, you can drop it in the comment section or you can send me a message through Facebook or Instagram. I’d be happy to do another podcast about your questions. Also, if you want me to talk about something specific, let me know! You can also check my TikTok account as I use the platform to educate viewers about movement, chiropractic education, yoga, pregnancy, and more!
Thank you for listening and see you next week!
