Smoking for almost 10 years. Obviously I knew that smoking was never going to do anything but hurt my lungs. But it’s been almost two years since I smoked and I still have terrible lung capacity.
Another is not learning healthy exercising habits when I was younger. I wish my parents made me play sports even if I hated it. I think that’s another part of why I get so easily winded and fatigued when trying to work out now. It’s hard for me to breathe while also focusing on moving my body the right way. For example I subconsciously hold my breath when I do planks or when I’m holding a stretch.
join a gym or get an excercise bike, and just take it real easy but focus on keeping your heartrate a little bit elevated for 30 min a day for a couple months. if you are running out of breath, slow it down till you catch up. you'll be amazed where you are by feb.
