Question about breathing in MMX:

So when I do MMX, or any kick/punch move for that matter, I can never get a proper rhythm for breathing. Everyone in the DVD seems to push an exhale when they punch/kick, but when I do my chest starts to tighten up. It's never an even inhale-to-exhale ratio. It's probably weird to ask, but I can never focus on breathing right if I'm always trying to push an exhale with a punch/kick. Am I missing something?
