In this eye-opening episode of the Oxygen Advantage podcast, Dr. George Dallam delves into the transformative effects of nasal breathing on athletic performance and respiratory efficiency. Despite the common practice of mouth breathing in sports, Dr. Dallam reveals how training to breathe through the nose not only reduces oxygen needs but also enhances endurance, lowers respiratory effort, and boosts overall efficiency.
Backed by research and his own journey, Dr. Dallam explains how nasal breathing supports greater oxygen extraction per breath, requires less muscle work for ventilation, and ultimately allows athletes to perform with less fatigue and more power. This adaptation, he argues, could be as impactful as traditional strength training, providing a natural edge to maximize both endurance and health.
