Taking deep breaths before cubing.

[Weston]

I run around a lot before I take tests. I should try that for cubing too.

So what you're saying is, {Picture inserted here explaining your point}

Pretty much.

For someone always doing the cross wrong on 1/4 of his solves, this is so much perfect for me, and this didn't even require me a cent. Thanks for the reminder!

I've always kind've wondered about breathing technique DURING solves. Like maybe some of us have a tendency to hold our breath a bit?

Maybe "zeroing" is Faz continuously breathing through his whole solve. xD

I'm pretty sure I hold my breath DURING solves.

And probs not.

I'm pretty sure I hold my breath DURING solves.

I used to do that too, subconsciously- but it helped me a lot to start focus on my breathing throughout the solve, if only to get more oxygen to the brain (as well as my muscles, in my fingers) to stay relaxed and not lock up as much.
I find meditation before solving to be helpful, and especially Pranayama, which is basically breathing exercises related to yoga...I'd recommend looking into it.

Hmm, maybe I will look into that. Thanks.
