O controlo da respiração é fundamental: não apenas fisicamente mas também para a nossa "energia" mental! Obrigado Mestre!

I've been working the breathing into all my various workouts and it truly does make you stronger. As soon as I feel winded, I realize I'm not breathing correctly and I correct myself and recover.
