Will abdominal exercises reduce the efficiency of belly breathing?

Question by Otha B: Will abdominal exercises reduce the efficiency of belly breathing?
I run for exercise 3 mornings a week and I also do abdominal exercises after running. I have recently realised the benefits of ‘belly breathing,’ both when running and generally, but I’m wondering if strengthening my abdominal muscles too much may reduce its efficiency.

Thanks

Strengthening muscles improves their performance and efficiency it does not reduce it.

If you are belly breathing your abdominal muscles will not fatigue if they are in shape.

The stronger a muscle is the less it has to work, meaning that a muscle is made up of many cells, the body tells the muscle how many cells to use for a particular task. The harder the task the more cells that are recruited to perform.

You would be using less cells to breath so most of the cells are not working and are resting, they can take over if the other cells tire.
