🌬️ Day 6/7: Lateral Costal Breathing
Did you know your lungs can expand sideways too? 🤔
Today's exercise focuses on expanding the rib cage laterally, improving chest mobility, lung expansion, and breathing efficiency. This technique is especially helpful for people with shallow breathing, reduced chest expansion, or prolonged sitting habits.
✨ Benefits:
✅ Improves rib cage mobility
✅ Enhances lung ventilation
✅ Promotes deeper, more efficient breathing
✅ Helps reduce chest tightness
Place your hands on the sides of your ribs, inhale deeply and feel your ribs expand outward into your hands. Exhale slowly and relax.
Breathe better. Move better. Feel better. 💙
