A couple days ago, I talked about how stress can be a contributing factor to back pain and how the technique of “box breathing” can be an effective strategy for counteracting stress and consequently reducing your back pain.
With COVID restrictions in effect, wearing and working out with a mask can make your breathing feel uncomfortable and make your whole body stressed, so in today’s video I will show you some techniques I’ve learned from Jiu-Jitsu that have helped clients of mine breathe more comfortably with a mask.
