(i.e. - breathing a little harder just before or during a big hill so that you prevent having an 'oxygen debt')
Some people claim that you can 'super-oxygenate' your blood which seems a little dubious but you may be able to make sure that you aren't carrying any 'oxygen debt' into the big climb. With a little forced breathing maybe I can make my oxygen transfer just a little more efficient.
For example I have to do a series of small hills before I do a big hill and I find that if I breathe a little extra just before the big hill it feels better on the climb. Is this just illusion? Does regular breathing provide all the air I need?
