What are some ways I can increase my lung capacity?

March 8th, 2010 | by admin |

I know for sure that running does and I do run. I know swimming does because it puts preassure on you, but what else is there? Are there any other activities/exercises I can do to increase my lung capacity? I play the trumpet and run, and my lungs don’t always take in enough air.

Easy. just insert a baloon and inflate it.

    Hold your breath as long as you can under water. and keep repeating. i increased mines by 4 seconds after doing it 6 times.

    There’s a few different things you can do to increase your lung capacity. Start taking in large breaths and breathing deeply. Perform cardiovascular exercises like running, physical activity, aerobics, and things of that nature. This builds endurance. Swimming is also a great way to increase lung capacity. It’s very good for breathing (just ask a swimmer). High altitude breathing helps because there is less oxygen at higher altitudes which will force your lungs to labor more heavily in order to obtain oxygen. Breathing exercises in the water is another way. Go into a pool past your chest, the pressure of the water on you will force your body to work hard.

    Work out, run, play the trumpet and swim a lot more. If you want to play the trumpet better, be in a good posture. Inhale at the end of certain measures.

    Try holding your breathe while sitting in a chair with perfect posture. Feet on the floor, back straight. Hold it for as long as you possibly can, and then inhale deeply. Repeat. Or chug water bottles in one breathe then move up to Gatorade, then a two liter thing. That’s what I did for my trumpet playing.
