ChiDragon Posted June 7, 2011 FYI.... Chest breathing is not a complete form of Chi Kung. It is because, chest breathing is still under the control of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. If you are lack of oxygen, the heart will pump faster and breathe faster. Only abdominal breathing was mind controlled. Due to abdominal breathing, ample of oxygen provided to circulate in the blood, the heart do not have to do extra work by beating faster than normal.
