breathing whilst exercising in gym

may sound like a silly question but does anyone have any tips/guidance on how to properly breathe whilst working out? I was doing hammer curls yesterday and almost felt like I was about to pass out after finishing the set
This is counter-intuitive but you should breathe in when you relax and out when you exert.
unless your a robot you should know how to breath. Listen to your body, you can't learn to breath.
