Break Your Limiter With Ribcage Expansion

this video will teach you how to use your breathing to amplify your strength and transform your physique through the technique of ribcage expansion. Most people underutilize their breathing muscles, limiting their potential for gaining size and strength. Weak breathing mechanics compress the ribcage, affecting every muscle group in the body and leading to chronic pains and mobility issues. This video offers cues and exercises to help you breathe more deeply and engage your muscles more efficiently, enhancing your overall strength, durability, and mobility. You’ll also learn about the Valsalva Maneuver, the importance of the glottis, and how to incorporate these techniques into active bracing to maximize your lifting potential. Through these methods, you’ll gain not only physical benefits but also insights into how deep breathing can correct asymmetries and deformities, offering potential alternatives to conventional rehab training. Join this journey to unlock the full power of your breathing and reshape yourself into a stronger, more resilient version of yourself. mewing tutorial: All Cell clips were taken from Team Four Star’s DBZ Abridged Timestamps: 00:00 Deep breathing and rib cage expansion for muscle growth - Rib cage is the foundation of the musculoskeletal system - Expanded rib cage creates ideal base for muscle growth and flexibility - Most people access only a fraction of their breathing potential 02:41 Learning proper breath control - Importance of learning to hold breath properly - Controlling the glottis valve in the throat - Valsalva maneuver and its limitations 05:55 Muscular engagement for deeper breathing - Engaging the transverse abdominis muscle - Tensing the platysma muscle in the neck - Amplifying mewing position with tongue engagement 13:24 Focused breathing techniques - Breathing into specific body points aligned with chakras - Engaging the pelvic floor (root chakra) in breathing - Synthesizing all breathing techniques into a cohesive practice 16:54 Refining breathing practice - Transitioning from segmented to diffused breathing - Using gentle, unrelenting breath to expand the rib cage - Applying deep breathing during various exercises and stretches 19:31 ️ Benefits of deep breathing practice - Improved mobility and flexibility - Enhanced strength and durability in muscles - Better interconnectedness of muscular movements 21:10 Benefits of deep breathing and rib cage expansion - Improved muscle engagement in neglected areas - Enhanced overall body mechanics and movement - Potential to correct physical deformities like scoliosis and pectus excavatum 24:14 Proper bracing technique for strength training - Combining deep breathing with the Valsalva maneuver - Incorporating neck and head bracing through mewing and clenching - Concept of “structuring“ for muscle stabilization 28:55 ️ Advanced bracing technique: Total Concentration Breathing - Using inhale pressure instead of exhale pressure for bracing - Focusing breath intention on specific body areas - Combining structured tension with mindful movement for increased strength 33:48 ️ Practical application of Total Concentration Breathing - Approaching lifts at 60-70% max air capacity - Inhaling into structured tension during concentric movements - Passive exhalation between repetitions Music Used in order: Jujitsu Kaisen but is it ok if it’s lofi Zelda and chill: song of storms Zelda and chill: ocarina of time Zelda and chill: minute of forest Dbz perfect cell theme slowed reverbed Zelda and chill: fairy fountain Zelda bits and hits Dragon ball lofi ultra instinct, Rifti Beats Overtaken, Rifti Beats
