Nice vid BullD. That's one of the better form videos I've seen! The doggy was a nice addition too!

Sorry if this is going a lil OT, but I just quickly wanted to ask about breathing during deadlifts.

I inhale deep before lifting off the ground at the start of the set, then exhale on the way up, inhale again on the way down, rest on floor, exhale on way up and so on.

But during a working set of say 8-10 lifts, I'm gasping for breath by my 6th rep and need to stop for a few seconds to catch my breath before i can carry on and finish up the set.

What am I doing wrong? Could someone gimme a few tips???
