Exhaling through nose or mouth?

How do you breath? I assume everyone inhale the air by mouth. What about exhaling? By nose or mouth? I exhale by mouth because I think if i use nose to exhale I'll tend to use nose to inhale as well. I think I should never close my mouth so that I will never happen to breathe with my nose underwater. Those of you who exhale by nose, do you keep your mouth open nontheless?

  • Out of curiosity, I paid a small amount of attention to exhaling last time in the pool. I exhale through both mouth and nose, but differently at different times. It seems to be a self-regulating thing; the transitions between breathing styles are so subtle I rarely notice (except when they aren't subtle, of course). Regards, VB
