cling the breath in and out too quickly. If you get dizzy abort and wait
a few minutes and O2 load again but SLOWER.
Timing Breath Hold:
At end of oxygen loading, exhale last breath as fully as possible and
take the largest-deepest breath possible - start your time. I like to
start right at :00 seconds so no mistakes can be made.
Close the eyes (or not) and just relax. I like to visualize ying though
cumulus clouds to take my mind off what I’m doing. Quite frankly I
don’t like doing the RBH tests at all, so I try and take my mind off.
- clear the mind of thought;
- don’t check time until you are ready to begin your exhale...
this helps keep your mind in neutral;
- the process of exhaling counts toward total time as you are
still using the breath being timed; you’ll know when you need to ex-
hale and how fast; end time at beginning of next breath.
The exhale technique can vary from person to person; you may nd
you like to exhale a little bit at a time to rid yourself of CO2 as I do; the
exhale process using this method may take from 20 - 40 seconds.
Consistency enables RBH test to accurately track improvements in
Oxygen burn rate during your lifetime. Use same methods always for
accurate comparison from year to year.
We suggest only one RBH test per-WEEK during the rst month
of EarthPulse™; once per-MONTH thereafter so practice cannot
be associated with improved RBH during your 90 day trial. Once
every 6 months after the rst 3 months; once a year after the rst
couple of years. Hold-time will improve quickly the rst few weeks
and more gradually after that. RBH increases purely as function of
mitochondrial oxygen burn rate; and should improve for YEARS.
Inventor’s didn’t top out till year 6 at 2:42 and is currently 2:33 min-
utes from baseline of 1:15 - 1:20 (and I’ve smoked hand roll tobacco
since 1990) w/no aerobic exercise (but surng); saturated blood oxy-
gen 99%. It was 96% in 2001 presumably due to10 years of tobacco.
Low for a 40 year old.
