What I'll do next is I like to make sure that I have some exhale going on with the nose, because that keeps the nose clear of any water going up. So I'm going to do half and a half, I will do a certain number of strokes breathing out through my nose, and then just before I turn my head to breathe, I will purge or burst all the air out through my mouth. And so this is because I use a constant exhale for most of the time that I swim. Not everybody based on body density, not everybody is going to exhale, or very constantly. Some people need to hold on to their air. But it's important to understand the process for you as an individual, not just say, okay, somebody said, I'm going to constantly exhale. So I should do that. Somebody else said I'm going to constantly hold my air until the last or I'm going to hold my air until the last possible second, it's no one answer is right for everybody. So you have to do is you have to figure out which one is going to work the best for you. And you have to experiment. And think about making sure that the most important thing is that you get all your air out before you turn your head to have the air come in, you get the co2 out before you turn your head to get all the good air in. So right now I'm going to experiment with a few strokes breathing out through my nose. And then I will purge more through my mouth as I rotate to get my breath.

So I'm trying to also make it audible. So that to remind me, the difference between the nose and the mouth. And most of the time I'm not making noise when I do this. But for this exercise, I'm trying to really focus on making sure that there's a difference between the nose and the mouth as far as where the IRS coming out. But it's, it's again, you're thinking all the time. When I went to seven, I don't usually go to seven, it's usually three or four. And so it was a little awkward for me. So if it looks a little weird, it's because it was the next video hopefully will be more consistent.
