The Step-Up Breathing Protocol serves as a great pre-workout by prepping the respiratory system (you will be working hard which will require more intense breathing), making more O2 available to you, and engaging your focus in the work about to be performed.
But the Step-Up Protocol is just as useful anytime you need a perk-up. More oxygen and enhanced focus? Sounds beneficial for when you are helping your kids with their science project, hammering away at a work presentation, or attempting a DIY home renovation.
If you are running on empty but you still have a few more miles to go, use the Step-Up Protocol to put a little more gas in your tank!
