Physiological sigh pre lift calm uses one to two double-inhale, long-exhale cycles before heavy sets when anxiety overshoots useful arousal—shaky hands and rushed setup. It trims excess sympathetic tone without flattening the focus needed for bar path cues.
Stand clear of the rack, eyes open, then approach the bar. Skip if you need higher arousal for max singles you have rehearsed.
