0:17.3	to it. And today's guest is a breathing coach. Can you believe it? There's coaches for
0:24.8	breathing. As we learned in the episode, there is a lot to do with tolerating CO2 up in
0:33.3	your oxygen, being able to breathe to improve your performance. So if you are into performing
0:39.8	well and recovering well, that's where the breath comes in. Today's show is for you. We
