LOL yeah school4life but there are good scuba diving stories on the net. My favourite is the myscubastory site.
They have dive accident stories, shark dive encounter stories, wreck discovery stories, and so on. THey have lots of videos on the previous topics too! Type myscubastory into google and its the first one. Let me know what you think!
I wonder what the effect of doing such thins on you braincells is. I know that beeing without oxygen for long causes braindamage. Going to such extremes seem risky to an unknowing amateurs like myself. Anyone has some medical information about this?
I did a research on this subject, and I no evidence has been found that holding your breath damages your brain, though some experimenst have bean done and they show that after holding your breath a special kind of protein is found in blood that is normally found in the brain so, and is found in blood of brain damage patients.
However that does not immediately mean that your brain is damaged, it means that the brain membrane has been compromised in terms that it let go some of the protein, which also happens during very exhausting trainings in any sport.
Also they did a magnetic resonance scan on freedivers beginners and freedivers that practiced this sport more then 10 years. They didn't find and deviation from the normal brain on the beginners brains, but on the pros brains they did notice a some kind of change in some parts of brain. But that change doesn't necessarily mean that they brains are damaged. Some tests on experienced freedivers have been done that would test their logical skills, and they scored alike oll the other people.
And by that I mean they had a standard variation, someone was higher someone normal someone lower. So to conclude, holding your breath doesn't do any brain damage in short term, but in long term scientists don't know, because there was not enough research done on that subject.
I dont know. I am able to do 4 laps in a 24 meter pool without breathing pure oxygen. You dont need to. The trick is hyperventalating. You need to get as much carbon dioxide out of your body as possible. It causes the gulp reaction to breath.
Problem is, without that reaction, you can go longer, but have a likely chance of passing out because you have no impulse to breath in.
Thank you for the advice! :) I'm a beginner to the whole swimming/diving thing, done 50m without fins 3 times. That was hard, lol.
I thought that you don't feel yourself blacking out in the shallow water. How do you distinguish between just an ordinary contraction and signs of black out?
The trick is fitness, technique and relaxation. Hyperventilation ist extremely dangerous and should never be used. Not even with a spotter in shallow water. It's also detrimental to your training by the way.
I see your point Fdazzaigl. But i don't see her really hyperventilating but rather breathing deep for preparation. It can have similar effects if done excessively, but it serves not only co2 reduction but also relaxation and to increase the diving reflex afaik. Anyway, she is a pro and can control the things she does.
I rather pointed the dangers of hyperventilation out to the viewers of the video to prevent them from doing stupid stuff :)
@Samurailord Hyperventilation before the dive has limited efficiency. The key is to have huge oxygenation of the body or CP (control pause) 24/7 by having only 3 breaths/min at rest for basal or unconscious breathing (during sleep too).
She is at the very top of the Buteyko Table of Health zones (there are 12 zones in total, depending on one’s stress-free breath holding time test). Most modern people are 9-10 zones below her. The table can be found here on internet.
@artour2006 I know quite a lot about Apnoe, but i must admit i don't fully understand your comment. What exactly do you mean by the "limited efficiency" and the "huge oxygenation"? I also never heard of that control pause thing. Looking up the Buteyko table as i write :)
Please explain to me and/or give me links to ressources. I'd love to learn more. A personal message i also okay if you don't want to be limited to the 500 chars :) I'm looking forward to reading your reply. Thanks a lot
@Samurailord The resources about very long breath holds are limited to some hatha yoga books, which also claim 5-8 min maximum breath holds as normal for those who have 3 breaths/min. Details are on my site: see CP tables, CO2 effects, minute ventilation graphs, etc. NormalBreathing
dive position down to offset bouyancy of the human body, because with a air in your chest you rise up, swimming is most efficient if your body is straight -> parallel to the water's surface. Thats why olympic swimmers are told to swim downwards.

so what do you do? hyperventilate anyway and swim with a spotter?
Valholm 2 years ago
Basically you got it.
But you need to practice and stay calm.
And yes DO have a spotter especially nearby where your limit is. Because you do feel yourself blacking out trwards the end.
Its not that bad in a shallow pool because you can pullup pretty quickly. but if your pushing it, defintely have a spotter.
Mind you, being on a swim team and also practicing this over time helps :)

@Samurailord Although it is dangerous, you do see her blowing out CO2 in this vid.
I don't really see how it is detrimental for your training except for not being able to correctly determine your limits.

Very smooth and powerfull technique. But I wonder, why the diving position is so much downward? (Usually) it means she's not having enough weights...
BTW: Japanese really do know how to hype with allmost everything :D
