4. Respiratory Lung Capacity (RLC)   Your RLC

a. Reminder: Each time you take a measurement, pull the tape as tight as possible so that you will be able to take accurate comparison measurements at a later date.

b. To begin: Take your tape measure and wrap it around your chest, just under your armpits, and above your breasts.

c. Inhaling Lung Measurement: Now take a huge, deep breath by inhaling through your nose until your lungs are full and you feel like you could burst. Note the placement of the measuring tape, that it is still under your armpits and across the chest. When you are inhaling your full breath, you are ready to take that measurement. This number is your Inhaling Lung Measurement. Record it in the space below.

d. Exhaling Lung Measurement: After taking your Inhaling Lung measurement, exhale fully out of your mouth. When all the air is out, puff out the last breaths with quick, sharp puffing sounds to be sure all of the air is cleared from the lungs. When your lungs are clear of air, you are ready to take that measurement. This number is your Exhaling Lung Measurement. Record it in the space below.
