Everyday, the vast majority of human beings on planet Earth carry something!

Whether it’s the washing, logs for the fire, a pot filled with dirt, the shopping, the chances are carrying things doesn’t get the joy factor up in most people.

But what if the action of carrying weight could be redirected into the increasing and improving your body’s vitality, strength and energy levels?

Would that not change the tedious into a wonderful gift?

In our younger years

You see in our younger years, most people are taught that when we carry things, our focus should be on our muscle.

So we quite literally breathe in the background with our muscle being in front.

Unfortunately if you’re over the age 40 (if not 30 in some cases), this belief our breath is secondary to our muscle actually works to our detriment.

Simply because our body’s are governed by two major wheels over the course of our life.

1. The Wheels of Expansion
2. The Wheels of Contraction

When you’re a kid your body is expanding.

Using your breath to strengthen your muscle makes sense because physically you’re not shrinking.

When we’re in our younger years, the Wheels of Expansion have more traction than the Wheels of Contraction.

But once you reach that age (which is different for all of us), just like the waxing and waning of the tides and the seasons the Wheels of Contraction gain more traction as we age.

And as the Wheels of Contraction gain momentum so too does our lung capacity and body flexibility decrease.

Does it have to be that way?

No, but you have to practice thinking differently!

Because the truth is for every law there’s an overriding law.

And the highest law that gives your body life is the Law of Respiration.

It’s your breath that gives you life, not your muscle.

Every time you carry something, use the weight of whatever it is you’re carrying to focus on your breath.

Use physicality to help hone your aerobic expansion & connection.

Or to put it  a different way…

STOP USING YOUR BREATH TO STRENGTHEN YOUR MUSCLE

Yes, these are heavy logs i’m carrying and YES THIS IS AN EDITED VERSION.

The full length video with all the Triangles of Force i utilised, and the full spectrum of TriBreath breathing rhythms (the 3-STEP, 5-STEP & 7-STEP) and the Breathing Centres of your Spine & Body and how to use them is in the Members Area.

In the beginning obviously start with objects of a comfortable weight and focus on pulling your breath up your spine on your IN-breath’s and out the front on your OUT-breath’s.
