Efficacy Breathing Technique

Abstract
Objective : To determine the efficiency of deep breathing exercise (belly breathing) on middle and long distance athletes (n=7) of The Chinese High School.

Method.
The subjects were briefed about the test. they were given a survey form to be filled in. Each component has a score from one to ten to circle. Subjects were told to circle one of the number first and twenty days later circle how they felt. During the twenty days, the subjects were asked to practice breathing exercise. They are to do this 10mins in the morning and 10mins in the evening.

If the subject circles, for example, 6 for the positive domain (energy level, feel good, mental relaxation, calmness) and 6 for the negative domain (fear, anger and stress) and then 20 days later circles 8, it means there is no improvement to these areas.

To further elaborate, it means there is an improvement in the positive domain - namely, energy level, feel good factor, mental relaxation and feeling of calmness. It also means that there is reduction int he negative domain - namely; fear, anger and stress level. if, however, 20 days later the subject circles 4, the result is otherwise as mentioned earlier. The past and present result are given below.

Results of the persent study show that there is reduction in anger, fear and stress level and an improvement in mental relaxation, energy level, feel good factor and feeling of calmness.
