I have had this problem since like forever, but since past few months I feel like it has increased.

I need to take deep breaths all the time.

I workout on a day to day basis and have no problem in sports and am perfect on stamina, endurance etc 

Plus I take healthy diet and drinks lots of water

Still I always need to take huge breaths.

Please help me out

Thankyou

    There can be several reasons for needing deep breaths, often it is caused by anxiety and there are exercises to improve the problem. It can become a vicious circle the more deep breaths you take the more you need. Other things can be obesity, cardiovascular, asthma, sleep apnea, emphysema etc but in your case these sounds unlikely by what you say.

      No obesity sir, I am a muscular adult.

      Yoga, meditation, and deep breathing techniques could help.
