    The more you walk or run, the more breaths you make. What’s your pulse/breath while walking? What about “any other form of activity” that could introduce sweat? Skimming, cycling, skiing, fucking… hell even hopping wood and lifting weights make you breathe faster if you strain yourself.

    I’ll be take breaths

      You’re not taking 5+ breaths per step even when running, and as your cardiovascular health increases you take fewer breaths.

        That’s the kicker. You work out to breathe harder and faster, but as you work out, your heart gets more efficient, meaning at least you exert yourself slower, requiring more work to get the same heavy breathing.

      walking doesn’t increase your breath count, maybe by 1 or 2 per minute, so it’s rather insignifacnt, if it does more then you really, really need to walk more and get into better shape.
