Then, one lucky day, I stumbled upon an ancient breathing practice so mind-blowingly simple and powerful, it was like I had entered the Marvel Universe as an all-new superhero and my superhero power was to hack the flow state.

That website is a beautiful thing. It is like Rich Energy meets some weird religious cult meeting a Nigerian Con Man

How does one stumble upon an ancient breathing practice? Asking for a friend

If any of you folks buy into this I have some magic beans you might be interested in too.

And no, I don't mean the equally BS 'Revital U' coffee beans.

But, but, it says right on the front page, "We are 100% focused on giving Science & Practical Knowledge, so You Can Learn for Yourself How to Hack the Flow State" Science, man, SCIENCE!

Is there an OP missing or something...?

Breathing offers infinite extra life possibilities compared with not breathing.

Is there an OP missing or something…?

You have to stumble across your entry to the flow state.

Looks like my original link has been removed.

Obviously the crew at STW Towers have grabbed all the places available and don't want us to be as awesome as they will be. 🙂

As I was watching, some bloke called Kevin from Wigan 'joined Wilson in the Flow State'.

Kevin, are you on here? 🙂

For $9 I'm almost tempted to buy it just to see what the **** he's talking about.

In, hold to count of ten, exhale slowly to count of ten, rinse and repeat.
Oh, ordinary breathing, that’s just in and out until you die.
That’ll be £500, invoice in the mail.

Apparently it's a "simple 5 minute hack", which is unlike anything I've ever heard of before on the internet. I'm definitely in...

If you die, you're probably doing it wrong.

Judging by the smug look on his face a fair few already have.

Someone needs to create a browser filter plug in which detects phrases like "life hack" or "x minute trick" and just erases the text and any hyperlink.

I've read the first few paragraphs and sounds pretty similar to taking cocaine. And at £9 a go, a little bit more expensive.

That said, a 490% increase in performance is not to be sniffed at. Or is it, like coke, all about perceived performance..

Once you get past the bullshit, waffle and science blinding, he seems to be talking about increasing your co2 tolerance in the way that freedivers do. Not sure that translates into the performance gains he's describing but there does seem to be some science behind the concept of overbreathing. However I'm happy to get shot down in flames by those who know substantially more than I do!

STOP DOING THIS IF YOU WANT TO HACK THE FLOW STATE

Quite what the Flow State will do when they realise they've been hacked is anybody's guess. It's not like he's operating under the radar. If they're anything like the Iranians it won't be pretty

Is this related to Buteyko breathing? (An expensive technique to learn but interesting all the same)
I.e. basically nose breathing (only) even under load?
Dr Mercola (yeah I know some love to hate) has done pieces about this which basically reveal the technique for free.
John Douillard (school sports coach) wrote an interesting book which included something similar in his training methods. At marathon pace a runner can breathe entirely through the mouth to very good effect using his technique which seems to be based on a yoga technique. (“ujai breathing? Maybe spelled that wrong)
His students won a lot of races.
Many say we “mouth breathe” far too much.
I’m sure that will elicit some comments ‘;~}

I thought research so far had shown little or no benefit to specific breathing techniques? Although I do admit spending a month or two trying to learn Obree's 3-phase breathing when training, it certainly didn't help 🙁

Not again!
These fancy breathing programmes come round regularly. Everyone thinks they are wonderful and claim superb benefits. Then a couple of weeks later they are all forgotten.

I too tried the Obree method. We all did. None of us got it to work, and it certainly did nothing for our times. Even Obree soon stopped talking about it.

You name it, someone somewhere has invented a different method of breathing to that perfected over millions of years of evolution. (Or, like the moon landings did evolution never happen?)
