Thank you for sharing

[@fynbqedn]

Excellent, interesting, and joyfull perspective thank's to you, mister Molchanov !

[@truthseeker6584]

Super interesting! I thought naively that free diving was just all about holding your breath as long as possible. I never knew that the ability to relax plays such an important role.

[@Mitronis]

I love watching videos from Alexey🙌🏼

[@itstoomuchtoomuch]

Can we see a video about advanced relaxation techniques? Especially attention deconcentration? 🙏

[@dirkdaniels5746]

Ref. : Point 3 I just imagine my 'body double aka spirit' remaining at the surface breathing connected with kind of naval cord, maybe transforming myself intonot patience but more joy like. KR dD the womb again, with all aspects of natural relaxation and plenty of time not patien

[@dirkdaniels5746]

Transforming myself into the womb again

[@dirkdaniels5746]

Plenty of time, not patience but joy😅..

I think this is too individual to make a general video about. You have to experiment and figure out what works for you and your psyche.

[@PhilippeVirgili]

Thank’s for your experienced feedback! I would suggest a short exercice you have to improvise while doing a daily task and whatever the task (washing plates, fixing a shelf…): hold your breath about one minute ore more while doing this because the goal is to complete the task while ''freediving''. You may also visualize underwater: your life depend of the success so you will observe from time to time you’re drowned dead!…

Hello Alexey! Very interesting video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us... I have a question: In the video, starting at about 8:26, your are doing like very short and quick breathing before your dive... I guess it is some sort of technic... can you explain what are you doing there? (I'm a complete newbie about freediving).

[@MohamedReda-re5cv]

You're awesome Big record 133 mittre deep water😊😅😅

[@inCARSONate]

So many questions - does Alexey exhale before going under? if not, does he let air out during the journey down and back? and I assume he has the headlamp to see the line. his eyes are closed most of the time though - does he close his eyes the whole time? wild stuff! great video - world peace to everyone 🙏🏻

[@LoLEntensindtoll]

No, he doesn't exhale before a dive. No freediver is doing this.

[@branlob]

if you exhale during the freedive that's a signal for the safety diver to pull you up, i.e. your attempt is aborted. he actually keeps his eyes open a lot as well during a dive

[@inCARSONate]

Thanks for your comment - it’s a world I know little about. Wild stuff these divers are doing.

[@monikacastellsestella7602]

Hi Alexei I got my bi fin and after 19th finish hope so the court sheet. So I don t know he ow long I will spend to leave to french polinesia Australia new Zealand better than Nassau. Dean's hole. Because in dean a hole for freediving ok. But for having a life without agressions? Where I should go? Hugs. Kissess and so on so on.

[@maksymilianukowski6611]

i don't fully understand the idea of mindset. If i go for PB i am often little stressed and i dont know how to overcome this. I train relaxation but in pool and sea it doesnt work.

[@TopJoe]

I need to know what the dangers are

[@kervypaham3500]

I think a lot of people came here new to freediving, expecting to get some "hacks" to instantly extend their breath hold. That includes me 🤣

[@MolchanovsFreediving]

These may not seem as "hacks" but they are really working and worthy tips )

[@ookiemand]

@@MolchanovsFreediving Yes they are! Warm greeting from Kars (the Netherlands)

[@redfordlantao]

I love watching from alexey big record 133 mittre deep water 😊😅😅😅

[@ashleyc8373]

Lol he didn’t give any tips really. He said look it up and get an instructor. We want examples

[@simon.annies]

it's an overview video to point you in the correct direction. One could make an hour long video about each of the bullet points. You know what to look for now. Don't expect a 15 minute video to teach you everything there is to know about a subject as complex as this.
