margee and blood oxygen

[Guest guest]

Margee -

Yes, but one can improve the ability of the heart to circulate the

oxygenated cells through the body - which over time deteriorates

unless you use it. Also, like athletes in training do, your body will

make more red blood cells as well when they are required.

Some athletes take drugs to increase their red blood cell count

artificially because it gets mopre oxygen to their muscles - that's

why the Russian cross coutry skier was disqualified as well as

several other athletes at the recent olympics. It takes work to get

the oxygen to the muscles and organs and yoga will help your

body do this as will the deep breath that is required by the body

when you are doing your practice. It all has to work together -

moving your body/muscles, heart pumping deeply and long

deep breaths.

 

Also - In their daily lives most people do not breath properly

because of chronic tension, weak muscles, poor posture and

also the other factors we are familiar with - obesity and general

inactivity - so... the blood cells do not ever even reach their

capacity of oxygen. When you breathe fully and deeply they will

reach capacity. It takes support to breathe properly and that

takes practice and vigilance. It deteriorates over time unless you

keep practicing or at least excercise a little every day (for some

people this is a huge, huge hurdle) There are millions of red

blood cells waiting to be filled with oxygen and it takes

considerable effort to fill them all...
