Breathing & Bracing 101
The Foundation of Strength & Power Mastering intra-abdominal pressure improves strength and protects the spine.
Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) is the hidden force behind almost every major lift and athletic movement.
It’s not just about how much weight you lift—it’s how well your body stabilizes under that load. When you breathe and brace correctly, you create a strong 360° cylinder of support around your spine, helping transfer force efficiently while protecting your low back from injury.
Top strength coaches emphasize that breathing and bracing are essential—not optional—for performance. Without proper bracing, energy leaks occur during movement, and the spine is left vulnerable under heavy loads or dynamic actions like sprinting and jumping.
