How do you get your breath back quickly while running?

Question

im was an avid runner. i had to stop for three months after an injury. im just ran for the first time agian today and after just three quarters of a mile i was completely out of breat. HELP!!!

Answer 1

No panic !!! Just stop fretting and DON'T push yourself lest you wind up on the sidelines as an overuse injury victim. Start slowly and take it easy. Give yourself a week or 2 to readjust. You will find that you will progress much faster than if you had never run.

Good LUck

Answer 2

I'm not sure. When weightlifting it is important to not hold your breath but to breathe out during the lift and exhale as you lower the weight (the negative rep). I found that breathing quickly when sprinting seemed to help but I could be wrong.. The more running you do the better your breathing will become through the natural process of your mind getting used to it and developing a better technique and simply because you will be fitter. Much exercise will strengthen your heart and increase your lung capacity. But wear proper running shoes and running around a field as opposed to on pavements is best. Running machines can be good as well.

Answer 3

Don't worry, after taking about 2 months off of running due to an injury i was out of breath after running for about 1 mile. My advice is to just start your pace off slow and steadily increase it each week. It only took me about 2 weeks to be able to start running up to 6 miles without stopping again at a nice pace of 7 minutes for each mile. Good luck!

Answer 4

It'll come back quick, just be patient. Don't push it quite as hard as you did when you were running frequently. Take the first few runs easy and enjoy the feeling of running again. You'll be back close to where you were in no time.
