The average total lung capacity of an adult human male is about 6 litres of air, but only a small amount of this capacity is used during normal breathing.Tidal breathing is normal, resting breathing; the tidal volume is the volume of air that is inhaled or exhaled in only a single such breath.pecific changes in lung volumes also occur during pregnancy. Functional residual capacity drops 18â20%, typically falling from 1.7 to 1.35 litres, due to the compression of the diaphragm by the uterus.
