I tried to go for a run today only breathing through my nose but only lasted about half a mile then went back to in through the mouth out throught the nose.

When i'm on the heavy bag it's either a sssh! sound through clenched teeth or a sort of bark but i have to open my mouth to do this.I have been paying more attention latley and notice a lot of boxers make this shouting/barking sound when they punch so i am presuming they must be opening their mouth aswell.

For the 1st try to breath IN from nose & OUT from mouth..
For the 2nd you don't have to open your mouth a lot.. Try to do it with a small mouth op & inside your from your teeths.. The sssh is a way to explode your air in the end of your punch..
That's my opinion..!!!
