Training: Breathing, Timing
Breathing should be as consistent as the other elements of your "process". Timing is a big part of the steps you are going through. If you take a deep breath and hold it, then pull back the bow string, you will find that you are "up in your chest" and loose the flat back and center core stability. The sight will jump and beat with your heart, making aiming challenging, and you may release the string prematurely because you simply can't hold your breath anymore. Breathing should be timed to bring air in as you "open" the bow, and slowly let about half of it out as
you come to rest at full draw anchor. A deep diaphragmatic settling breath should be taken and exhaled prior to raising the bow.
- While raising the bow, inhale deeply and naturally, using diaphragmatic breathing , which will create a natural feeling of gaining strength.
- Approximately 30-50% of the breath must be let out slowly and naturally when coming to full draw, but before anchoring, and then held from this point for the few seconds of aiming with an inflated/tightened abdomen till after the release and released during the follow-through.
