Hold your breath longer. freedive deeper. Have longer dive times. It all begins with static breath hold. Learning how to hold your breath longer has so many applications and will improve your freediving. In this video I talk about static breath hold training, how to begin training and all the applications that longer breath holds will have in freediving.
Learning how to hold your breath longer is one of the absolute foundations of freediving training. Once you're comfortable with longer static holds you will quickly find yourself growing more comfortable when you dive and especially when you spend more dive at the bottom.
Holding your breath longer is a process of getting used to the sensation of long breath holds. High carbon dioxide, contractions of the respiratory muscles and hypoxia. These sensations aren't comfortable at first and so the best way to train is to go slow, don't push yourself and allow yourself to grow accustomed to breath holds gradually.

Dont worry its not that hard, or you could just ask a follower to do it for you (pretty sure people would be ok with that). You just share the content with the developper and he does the app. Then he can give it to you to send to the store.

Before today, my previous longest breath hold was 3:00 minutes in a pool when I was about 20 years old. Here are my times for today 1) 2:45 2) 3:45 3) 3:30 4) 4:30 I was very excited about this new personal record. Thanks again for the videos. GREAT STUFF!!!

Thanks for the great tips and entertainment. You are fun to watch. I have really slacked off on my breath holding and had to dive to retrieve our laptop which I hope the gods liked. But the panic of losing all our footage and diving under docks made it really hard to stay calm and search. While the laptop is in a rice bath I figure now would be a good time to improve my breath hold and focus underwater.

1. 2:10 2. 2:44 3. 4:00 Hi Adam and everyone in the free-diving family. Thank you all for your inspiration. I'm a 64yo and want to still be doing this when I'm an 84yo. I need more motivation as I'm not consistent (off and on like a faulty light switch lol). I'm not sure if I did the exercise correctly. Intervals between breath-holds were 1 min approx. Looking forward to any constructive criticism. I've only been in the water Mar'18 (NZ hols) and haven't been diligent with any regular exercise regime. Looking forward to your reply. And....I'm so glad that I found your vids, love them to bits. Cheers

I usually get contractions between 1:15-1:30 and just push myself. I really like the perspective of just working your way up and staying within your comfort zone. I also really benefited from your video on the Frenzel technique! Thank you!!!

I wish I could have taken my first course with someone as patient as you- I feel like my instructor lost all respect for me when I wasn’t able to hold my breath for 3 minutes on the first day. It broke my confidence but I’m working on the basics on my own and hoping to get back out there soon to retest for certification. Thanks for the videos! They are so helpful.

I started a Freediving course two months ago, age 44. Never ever did any kind of diving before. Hardly some swimming lessons. Anyway, during the first static breath hold attempt of my life I did 4:40. Last week I did my second attempt. A surprising 5:03. Which is strange considering I totally suck at dynamic, haha (I mean, sometimes it's hard to do a simple 25m in swimming pool)! I never felt any contractions, more like a strong tension in my lung/throat area. I thought static was just a mental thing and that all you could do physically was expand your lung capacity. Didn't know about the getting your body used to CO2. I'll try these exercises. Thanks!

My contractions start around 1,45-2,00 minutes. After the contractions, it become very difficult for me to continue holding my breath.

Hey fellow freedivers of the world, question for ya. I have trouble equalizing on occasion and often have to push air into my drums and swallow in order to get a pop on the way down. Sometimes only in one ear thus compromising my dive. Anyone else have their own magic way to do it because that’s all I got so far and I can’t get past about 30-40 feet before I am unable to equalize. Also Adam you have taught me a lot about breathing in the 45 minutes I’ve spent on your channel. I didn’t think I could get past 1:30 but after listening to you I held for 2:45 on my first hold and I’m blown away.

I’m brand new to free diving… but I’ve learned to hold nose and pop BEFORE it hurts. Popping 4 times just to get to 20fow. Also equalizing my mask with very small breathe out threw my nose 2-3x. I could be way off but this helps me…

Hi Adam ! I have two questions about these table : Should i, at any point in my progress, change the breathing period or should it always be the same (descending from 1:30 to 30 sec? And for 02 tables, do you recommend the same system (starting at 50% of max breath hold and holding 10 secs more)? Thank you !

Hello yedi master! You mentioned on the commentary for wch that you got an inflammation when you started with breath holds, I think I got it after a few weeks of training (only every third day) but I don't feel like I have stressed it out so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. 1. 1:30 2. 1.45 3. 1:54 is my "best" but now I can't relax because of pain and so on so I guess I need to pause. Thank you so much for all the amazing videos, you are great!

breath hold 1) 1 min 12 secs breath hold 2) 1 min 23 secs breath hold 3) 1 min 56 secs Hi adam, your videos & tutorials are really encouraging me to practice a lot. I find it hard as an asthmatic to hold my breath some days, but with your tips ive improved a lot. It turns out i can hold my breath longer than all my friends (who aren't asthmatics) which i find really funny. Keep the great videos coming :)

Exhale breath walks i think have helped me. Exhale 15 steps then 3 big breaths and on the exhale hold and do another 15 steps. Been doing that a few weeks and just did 8 rounds and can hold breath heaps longer.

Adam mate, I'm so confused.. There's so many videos from you related to breath holds, that I don't know based on which video to train. I loved 4 min static table; I also trained with this video. However, I'm still confused on the warm ups and which table to use after specific warm up. So far I've trained CO2 and this is very easy (comfortable?) for me, I have no problem training it. I would love to have a training session video from you, where you go straight on the point with warm up times then what table to use, when training either CO2 or O2. I like to train 2 times a week, but I still don't understand how to practice O2, so that kind of video would really help. Thanks infront, you're a very cool guy. Greeting from Montenegro/Finland

Hey buddy :) the issue with this topic is that training your body for breath holding is not simple and you can't just train C02 or train 02 in such a simple way. Each table to good for different things. Sometimes warm ups are good. Sometimes they aren't good. The best all round table that exists is the 4 minute table that I describe. The tables in this video are just different examples of training that you can do

1. 1:11 2. 1:53 3. 1:36 I’ve tried a static breath hold in the past and only managed 30 seconds but after watching your breathe up and final breath videos this was the result! Only problem is that I keep stopping my hold before I feel any contractions. I can’t seem to hold it long enough and on the last one I felt nauseous. But I’m super excited to keep practicing 😊

1. 1:12 2. 1:56 3. 2:21 I'm new to freediving. Duck diving while snorkeling is probably more accurate probably to no more they about 5m depth. I'm keen to learn to do a course and dive deeper once it warms up a bit more in Victoria. When I was in my early teens, +20 years ago, I DNF 50m during swimming lessons, but the teacher had let me hyperventilate beforehand. I dont want to do anything so naive again.

I'm still a newbie at Freediving, how do you get to stay at the bottom for a long time? How do you even descend so easily and comfortably without taking so much effort? You're as informative as ever Adam!
@luky4013

freedivers often use weights when diving in depths which makes them float up less and gives easier descends

1. 3:25 2. 4:55 3. 5:06 Wow, I really impressed myself this time. Adam, I saw your videos weeks ago, and got me motivated to improve my breath holds. I found your videos really interesting and entertaining as well, good job! I have been practicing in the last 2 weeks the CO2 tables incresing from 1 minute hold to 1:30 and 1:45 two times. Also, I followed your advice and signed up for a freediving course last weekend and it was fantastic....I dove down 20 meters for the first time in my life! and now for the first time I could hold my breath for more than 5 minutes! even though last week couldn't hold my breath for more than 2:30 minutes......but I am understanding why, now. Thanks again and keep doing the good job!

Thanks Adam! Today I got a new PB of 5:17! and getting into the groove. Relaxing is key....for the first time in my life I am realizing this. Also, I would like to ask your opinion about this: after I did my 5:06, and after my 5:17 today, both times my left hamstring started to cramp a little (even when I was relaxed). It is kinda weird, since I didn't move my body at all, always laying on my bed. Any thoughts about why this could be happening?

Did this last year and was terrible but.. after a year I can post some decent times. 1st time was 1:38. 2nd time was 2:05. 3rd I stopped at first contraction by mistake at 1:07, but 4th time I got to 2:02. Also, after 10 years of smoking cigarettes last year I quit to dive, because my breathe hold underwater was 0:45 30ft max, if I was lucky.. now its more 1:40 times and so far 60ft max dive (: PB: 2:38

Hi Adam!! I find the video as amazing!! I have a question, researching other breathingwork they say that for sport performance is much better nasal breathing that mouth breathing. Are you use to train with the mouth breathing?
@jltroll
@jltroll 4 жыл бұрын
Freedivers train with mouth breathing because we wear masks with nose pockets or nose clips on our dives. Yoga breathing (pranayama) is mostly nasal breathing, although there are many different types.
