How do I increase my lung capacity? Which cardio exercises are the best for being able to go for a long time without getting winded?
I tried playing basketball with my friends and even though I lift I was winded after 15 minutes of running up and down the court.
Running faggot
Swimming

Any certain kind of running? Like sprinting in short bursts? Or just going out and doing a few miles at a steady pace?

For overall efficiency long distance running is the best, but it'll kill your gains. Your best bet imo is going on a run with an elevation mask

Hahahhaha this is the most retarded advice ever.
Qi Gong
Iirc, you can't really improve your actual lung capacity without drugs to open your airways more. You can improve your cardiovascular capability which ramps up the efficiency and ability of the body to rapidly take in oxygen and distribute it through the body, to which almost any cardio activity will do. But unless you have some kind of damage to your lungs that causes constriction of airways, you can't improve your lung volume

The mental image of a strongfat /fitizen/ with huge biceps and traps being out of breath after a short cardio is so funny

If it's only for basketball, sprinting.
