Dynamic tab is the a tab in Prana Breath app for increasing training complexity in a comfortable way. It is available for Guru version only.
What can you see and set in Dynamic tab
In action bar
(from left to right)
- Main Menu button
- The name of the tab — "Dynamic"
- The switch of "Dynamic mode" — it is green when it is turned on
- Menu button in the right corner
In main screen
Here you can see the ratios of each breath cycle and each cycle's chart.
- Note that here appears the training type you've chosen in Control tab or Training tab (in our case it is Custom training)
Please see these screenshots for the visual guidance:

Modify your training
Change the ratio
- Double-tap on a cycle (3rd in our case).
- Press on "ratio of breath cycle" item in the right drawer appeared.
- Modify this value the way you need to. In our case we change the ratio to 1:2:2:0 from initial 1:1:2:0.
- Modify other cycles in a desired way. For instance, we've changed the ratio of 5th cycle from 1:2:2:0 to 1:3:2:0.
- Note that the cycles you've modified have green-coloured chart (3rd and 5th), and all unmodified after them have purple-coloured (4th and 6th). The modified, "green" cycle is a "key cycle", and all "purple" after it will have the very same parameters, unless they are changed and became "green".
Please see these screenshots for the visual guidance:

Change the ratios of all "key cycles" at once
- Set the ratio for the "key cycle" you'd like, press OK. It's 1:2:2:0 (was 1:1:2:0) for the 1st cycle as for our example.
- Mark a checkbox with the changes in ratio. It's [+0:+1:+0:+0] in our case.
- Press "Apply".
- Note that all the "key cycles" AFTER the modified one, have changed as well — the 5th cycle in our example it's 1:4:2:0 now (was 1:3:2:0).

Increase "Seconds per unit" value gradually
- It's very convenient way to raise your training complexity smoothly and effectively.
- Choose a certain cycle (with double-tap). For instance, the 3rd.
- Press on "Seconds per ratio unit" item in the right drawer appeared.
- Using a spinner, choose the value you'd like. In our case, it's 5 sec 200 msec (was 5 sec before). Press OK.
- Modify other cycles. We've chosen 5 sec 400 msec for the 4th, 5 sec 600 msec for the 5th and 6 sec for the 6th cycle.
- Note that the ratio of breath cycle is the very same for all the cycles in this example, while the actual pattern is 5:20:10:0 for the 1st and 6:24:12:0 for the 6th cycle.
Please see these screenshots for the visual guidance:
File:Prana breath dynamic sec unit.jpg
Modify the "sec per unit" value of all "key cycles" at once
- Set the "sec per unit" value for the "key cycle" you'd like, press OK. It's 5 sec 100 msec (was 5 sec) for the 1st cycle as for our example.
- Mark a checkbox with the changes in "sec per unit". It's [+0.1 sec per unit] in our case.
- Press "Apply".
- Note that all the "key cycles" AFTER the modified one, have changed as well — the 6th cycle in our example it's 6 sec 100 msec now (was 6 sec).

Use diverse breath methods
- Diverse breathing methods are available for self-created patterns for Guru version only.
- You may copy the existing pattern and then use this feature.
- Choose the custom training you're working with.
- Turn the "Dynamic mode"]] on.
- Double-tap on a cycle (1st in our example)
- Press on the "Breath methods" menu item in the right drawer appeared.
- Choose the breath methods for every phase of this cycle (we pick "left nostril" and "right nostril" for inhaling and exhaling, and "pinched nostrils" for retaining and sustain).
- Also keep in mind that you can alternate the nostrils every few cycles if you wish. For that mark a checkbox "Alternate nostrils every 1 cycle", choose the number of cycles after which the nostrils will be alternated (pressing on a number). As for our example, we leave it as "1".
- Press "Apply" after you're done.
- Note that the 2nd cycle has the nostrils alternated now.
- If you set "inhale" or "exhale" with a certain nostril, you will hear a phase transition sound from corresponding side only in your headsets or stereo speakers.

Make all cycles the same back
- If you want to cancel some of the settings, or feel lost about the setting you've chosen, you can always rewrite them with the following:
- Choose a certain cycle (1st in our case), double-taping on it.
- Set the cycle the way you like, using the info described above.
- Mark a checkbox "Make them the same".
- Press "Apply".
- Note that this cycle now becomes the "key cycle" , and all "key cycles" that are AFTER this cycle will become "usual" (purple-coloured), and will have the very same parameters.
