Quotable moments:

"When your sleep is off, your mind is off, but when your mind is off, it can impact your breathing because you're less likely to cope with difficult situations." - Patrick McKeown

"If you have dysfunctional breathing, you're more likely to gas out. From a biomechanical point of view, if you have dysfunctional breathing, you're more likely to get injured and have lower back pain." - Patrick McKeown

"Breathing and movement go together. So if the breathing is dysfunctional, movement is dysfunctional." - Patrick McKeown
