Useful one! And can play a lot with in/exhale durations

[@KAIZENFREEDIVING]

Hello Sergey. I really like your videos and want to say that you for all the shared information! My name is Alex, I’m 51 years old, living in Buenos Aires, Argentina. This year I got sick with an auto inmune myelopathy, that affected my spinal cord and my ability to walk normally. As part of the recovery process, I started to swim. Soon after I realized that I love to swim underwater (apnea). It gives me an incredible peace of mind, and the sensation that I can still be active towards muy full recovery. I have 2 specific questions for you, and hope you can answer them: 1) Do you have any pool training plan to share with me? I’m currently making 60 meters with plastic bi-fins (always supervised by a lifeguard). I’m also in 4 minutes static apnea. I want to train properly to improve those figures. 2) I’m planning on buying the Lobster neck weight. Is it still comfortable for diving with both arms in forward position? Also, does it move during the turns? Thanks in advance and best regards, Alex

Ever tried hand paddles for DNF?

[@KAIZENFREEDIVING]

Not for DNF, but for surface swim, when I am working on the arm stroke specifically

How does square breathing compare against breath cycles or a plain old CO2 table?

[@KAIZENFREEDIVING]

I think it is less effective then tables, but you can still use it to supplement your training as well as avoid monotony
