buteyko breathing and chemoreceptor desensitization can help dilate the blood vessels more as the body tends to open up to receive oxygen when there's a relatively large amount of co2 in the system. In athletes, this type of training has reduced their respiration by 22% while they maintain maximal performance, so it is an indirect way to improve your cardio system and prime your body to work harder and longer. Overbreathing can cause the blood vessels to constrict and reduce bloodflow / oxygenation. I find it interesting that very few people bring up breathing during exercise, as you can control an alarming amount of your physiology with just your breath
Great point. After reading the book Breath, I introduced regular hypoxia into my swim workouts going from breathing every 3-strokes to every 5 for a month then to every 7-strokes for the past couple weeks. The adaptation process is physically and psychologically painful. However, once you get used to it, it feels like a superpower. I swim in a masters workout 3-days/week ~2,500 yards per hour session. Since I've been doing it I have been making faster gains in my weight training as well. Give it a try
Pavel, still dropping knowledge-bombs in a manner 10 year olds can understand. That's what separates knowledge from expertise. The Feynman of his field. Chapeau! We must all, more often than not, take time to just STFU and let the adults talk.
Great video. A followup on how to make the blood flow work for you in cardiovascular training, depending on the area you want to expand on, should be made for better showcasing different methods in different areas. Excellent job here
Does anyone have links to videos and articles going into much more depth on training the vascular system? I am trying to improve very poor circulation.
Thank you for your work and getting to the point, it's helped me get to training/recover. What's your take on strength training without without getting big. Sure this is covered a lot, I just like your takes. Thanks
Off on a tangent, what do you make of the advice to eat beetroot for bloodflow. I tried blending 4 in water and I did feel that it reduced blood pressure. However I read beets are very high in OXALATES so I dont eat many. Another point I have come across a few times - isometric exercise improves blood pressure and other cardiovascular benefits. I have a bullworker which I have started to use for a few minutes a couple of times a week, doinng 30 second holds in te mainn. I find it very tough but I do not know how effective it is.
Some endurance athletes have tried this - it's called blood doping. It is a form of performance enhancement and against the rules in most sports organizations. Endurance athletes have also taken erythropoietin, which is used to treat anemia. Erythropoietin causes the body to increase production of red blood cells, which transport oxygen, so the effect is like having "more blood." Erythropoietin is a banned substance in sports. It's also dangerous because a high amount of red blood cells cause the blood to become thicker and "sludgy." This can cause sometimes-fatal blood clots. Short answer: Don't add more blood.
Yes, I personally knew an Olympic athlete, at that time they would train at high altitude for a few months, the blood would become more oxygenated - so to speak. They then withdrew some blood, put them in the refrigerator. At that time it was no considered real doping, because they did not add any drugs to it. I think it was banned some time later. Before a big event, they would inject their own "super" blood. However, they had to be supervise at night. The blood would become thicker so they would jog on the treadmill in the night. It turns out that this acquaintance of mine, when he retired, he came out with an enlarged heart with would fill with extra water, a bit dangerous, not sure which medicines he now takes to prevent issues. For more info, research doctor Conconi and successors.
Good to see you online coach Pavel

Give it a try
Interesting. Great point about only focusing on the heart and not addressing blood flow
As always, incredibly well explained and masterfully detailed. Truly the best educator in the health and fitness realm. Great work Pavel!
This is very interesting insight. I've often wondered why my hands get very stiff after a very long hike or light jog. This would explain it.

Thank you Comrade Pavel!
take it easy cult member.
Interesting video. I'll take a look at the article. Great to see Pavel!

Excellent job here
So much knowledge. Hope one day you can come to Argentina to do teach us!
This dude doesnt age
Train like we do to receive these benefits.
He's 54 years old and looks like a 54 year old man that stays fit.
Thank you Pavel!
There is so much more to "cardio" than just the heart. Great video, as a long-time fan of Strong Endurance, I amlooking forward to learn more!
Pavel is the reason why Russian language in my language bucket list love from 🇮🇳
The comment section is open! Awesome!
Does anyone have links to videos and articles going into much more depth on training the vascular system?

I know you don't ask for it,but nattokinaze can help with that to
The man, the myth, the legend.
Very enlightening! Thankyou.

Great information, thank you
I learned something today.
Very interesting. Thank you.
What is you opinion on supersetting jumping jacks and pushups ?
Real life professor x
Great knowledge, thank you.
Grazie coach
Who does he mention in 3.15?
I didnt get the name. Can anyone plz??

Yakshamesh very nice!
Didn't exactly say how to do it.
Please read the follow-up articles and watch the videos - links are in the description.

Good to see you Pavel. John Simpson
We can comment! Great news.
Good to see Pavel, but how is this accomplished?
thnks
so, technically, could a person add blood, then do the hard endurance thing, then bleed it back out?

Swimming!🙏🏻👹🏋🏻🏊♀️
Pavel is here !!!!
Dog gone, "Sean Luc Picard"!!
High rep burpees.
I guess that explains why cyclists have shrunken upper bodies 🚴♂️
Cardio PULMONARY.
No such thing as "antiglicolitic"
Can't take any dudes that's had cosmetic intervention seriously.
How so?
