    I had a vocal coach tell me that yawning is a sign that your jaw is relaxed.

    I do this too. My trainer told me that a yawn is your body's way of gearing up for energetic or difficult activity. That yawning boosts your blood pressure and your heart rate. She said that a lot of people do it. Makes me mad when I do it. I breath correctly, use correct form, but I yawn. sucks.

    I find I did that when I used to play soccer. I do that now with running, which I think is slightly random, haha.

    Now I am worried I am doing it wrong. I never yawn.

    Don't hold your breath while lifting. Deep breaths while you're resting.

    Lol, try inhaling when you are trying to *kitten* off the floor and 405lbs on your back. Holding your breath helps brace your core and if you wear a belt it gives you something to "push" against.
