Form cues
- Sit tall with one hand on the belly, one on the ribs
- Inhale through the nose so the belly hand moves first
- Exhale slowly, letting the ribs settle — the exhale is longer than the inhale
Common errors
- ✗ Shrugging the shoulders to inhale
- ✗ Forcing the exhale
How Kalyra programs it
Trains the breathing side of recovery — Kalyra programs breathwork because recovery quality drives progression, not just effort.
Typically 1–3 sets of 60s, with the hold length scaled to the session.
Easier · Harder · Substitutions
No easier regression on file.
