Breathing

[Conquistador]

Hello all,

I have a question regarding breathing. The question is do I follow this breathing pattern from beginning to end or just during control questions?

The breathing pattern I am referring to is

15 to 30 breaths(in and out) per minute, or 2-4 seconds each.

Carefully read Chapter 4 of The Lie Behind the Lie Detector for advice on breathing.

Here we go for those who might have overlooked what is clearly in the PDF booklet "the lie behind the lie detector".

From the moment the pneumograph tubes go on, you
need to be concerned about your breathing. Many people are falsely
accused of attempting to "beat the box" because they (in the polygrapher's
opinion) breathe too deeply or too slowly or both



You should maintain this baseline breathing pattern until the pneumograph
tubes are removed from your chest and abdomen
