Is there such a thing as exercising your lungs when you work out?

I mean..... I had a great workout day before yesterday and I'm truly sore all over.. (( good sore, but non the less , sore )) I was sore "even" when I breathed.. my lungs hurt. Like I had a chest cold .. a lady I work for , told me that I exercised my lungs and they are sore from my deep breathing . Is this possible? I do not have a cold, nor am I coughing.

breathing is exercise for the lungs

Yes you can get sore lungs from hard exercise that makes you breath harder.
