I got your jerky movements😜🤣

I really progressed and love this but I can't stay for more then 30 secs, I try not to waste energy and take a good breath but it doesn't work.

[@DaveLynchWriter]

NO actual how to tips here? "kick the fins in the most efficient way possible" - ok - what is that? What's the higher levels of CO2 got to do with not running out of oxygen? How do you not duck dive? How do you use your energy in the best way? How do you glide through the water? Aaaaarrrrrgh!!! One of those horribly frustrating YT vids that tell you nothing to do with the title.

[@gertleroy]

of you burst your eardrum you need to stop diving for at least a couple of months and go see a doctor.

[@nailsbae.homecafe]

It seems she was underweighted a little bit. She kept floating up. That will waste precious energy as well. Good tips though.

[@szymondemski2557]

So how long after the urge to breathe kicks in can I still hold my breath?

[@jfoetidnwo56]

you can have several waves of diaphragm contractions without any harm other than sore muscles. you should be able to do 3 min no problem. try it on land. if you are scared, make a friend watch you, but usually people are too afraid of contractions to keep holding their breath. do not hyperventilate, do relaxed breathing and then hold for as long as you can. if you don’t hyperventilate you won’t black out. (don’t forget recovery breathing after you held your breath. breathe out a small amount quickly, breathe in quickly, hold for 1 sec, repeat 3x. it restores O2 levels faster than big heavy breaths.)

[@nabilamutiara5799]

As long time ago, actually 18 years ayo, i can hold my breath until 2 minute 13 second, and my friend can hold him breath until 10 minute, how wr can do this, the answer is, do nothing, dont make many move fot the heart not do Hardbeat

[@dylpickle6123]

Is that why you slowly breathe out of your nose? So you don’t have the urge to breathe with C02?

[@gertleroy]

I don't breathe out underwater. it's just air escaping from my mask

[@dylpickle6123]

@@gertleroy o

[@jfoetidnwo56]

never breathe out under water. you will lose too much oxygen and not reduce CO2 enough to lower the urge. usually you see air escaping from the mask when the person comes up again because the air in the mask expands

So for sighting coral reefs which is better scuba diving or snorkeling?

[@meepmeeper544]

How does the water not get in the snorkel

[@gertleroy]

snorkel is out of the mouth. it's still behind the strap of the mask so it stays next to your head, but the mouthpeace is out. please watch my videos on DUCKDIVE to know more

[@borispotocnik9493]

Id does. At the surface, just strongly blow in to it and water fly out. Breathe again. Simple.

[@gertleroy]

@@borispotocnik9493 no. that's not hoe it's done in freediving. when you're short on breath you don't wanna blow the water out. watch my videos in which I explain the dangers of snorkel in the mouth. search for GERT LEROY FREEDIVING MISTAKES BEGINNERS MAKE

[@YouTubeExplore777]

They should turn snorkels into gills. Copy how fish breathe using their gills and we'll never run out of underwater oxygen.

Mariah was a great teacher

[@jondacarollo7751]

How do you really know when to go up? Since the desire to breath starts very early.

[@jfoetidnwo56]

try on land. you can have spasms of the diaphragm (contractions) and still not run out of O2. test your capacity step be step in a safe environment (on land or with a capable buddy that knows rescue procedures)

The concept about the urge to breathe underwater not actually being about lack of O2...would that also apply to being strangled?🤔

[@gertleroy]

no. a choke cuts off blood stream. you can pass out in as little as 7 seconds because the brain is not getting new blood and thus oxygen.
