There is a free diving breath holding app on Android that teaches you how to hold your breath using breathing exercises. After 30 days of doing there exercises you can hold your breath for 4+ minutes. Give it a go, it's really neat

When I was a teenager I once held my breath for 4 minutes, lying on my bed. During the last 30 seconds my lungs were violently doing breathing movements (involontarily from my perspective), but I kept my throat closed, no air flow.

[@sonyadempsey5154]

They practice breathing and breath holding techniques, such as lung packing. Over packing already full lungs by sipping or gulping little bits of air in right before they descend. Then learning and practicing how to mentally and physically eqaulize that pressure during the entire dive..We supposedly have mammal like instinct to hold our breath longer, like dolphins and seals which can hold their breath,8 ,10, 15 minutes at a time. This is said because we were born into air after coming from water( an aquatic state) while living inside our mothers for 9-10 months.

[@rxonmymind8362]

The longest I've ever held my breath was four minutes without moving. Then one day whilst swimming underwater I swam the length of a 25 m pool and back which I did easily. Something happened along the way that ONE day my heart rate slowed way down. An unbelievable feeling not struggling with breathing or anything. So upon hitting the wall where I usually come up for air after 50m on the way back I decided not to come up for air. I didn't need it and proceeded to go back one more time. 75m on one breath and a bit of a struggle but I made it. I'll never forget that day. I never could duplicate that day again. I tried the day after and many after that. Never. The magic only happened once for me. The feeling of physically FEELING your heart slow is odd & beautiful while feeling like you could spend "all day under water.

[@MrLarossi]

Rxonmymind it happens, search for Badjau tribe and learn how they do ot

[@MapleSizurp]

I always used to see how many lengths i could swim in my parents old pool with one breathe. Ive totally experienced that before a couple times and eventually started practicing slowing my heart rate while just floating. I never actually took it seriously, just thought it was a cool concept. It almost felt like i was sleeping underwater and that time didn't exist, at points you think that you've been under for 20 minutes and wonder how you still feel like you can go longer.

[@rickymagilljr.8129]

Rxonmymind- what a beautiful and amazing story. One day I want to be able to experience something like that in the ocean. I cant even last more than 2 min. How do you last so long and what techniques do you use?

[@rxonmymind8362]

@@rickymagilljr.8129 I know this isn't what you want to hear but ....it just happened. Kind of like when my wife said she's pregnant. JK. To give you an idea what might have led up to that I have been trying to perfect my underwater technique. If memory serves correct I was able to get across a 25-meter pool in six "strokes". Which I did. I'm of average build nothing like Michael Phelps. I'm 5-10 and was at that time in biathlon-ish shape. Just to give you an idea of my physical condition. As for my technique for lack of better term it was a mix of tadpole and swordfish. I had nothing fancy going such as dolphin kicks underwater or anything like that. I really like to glide and relax when I'm underwater. As I push off the wall and at the peak of my momentum comes to a slow my arms & hands will come up towards the center of my chest while at the same time my legs will come up like a frog underwater. To finish the "push", my hands and arms I would make a circle from above my head down to my chest and then push down towards the center of my body towards my groin (like a lollipop) where my arms would stay flat against my body while at the same time my frog legs would kick. All this was in one motion. With that technique my glide would go pretty good. Thanks for asking. I wish you the best of luck and I hope one day you achieve that. Kia Kaha

[@kryptocake]

I smoked for 12 years and I could do around 3~ minute breath hold in a seated position after a week of practice. Breathing technique and mental state are key. Sit in a comfortable seated position. Now being a breathing exercise where you spend an extended period of time on the inhale and the exhale... Spend 5 seconds on the inhale, doing it slowly to draw it out for 5 seconds... then hold for few seconds... now exhale over a period of about 5 seconds... wait a few seconds and repeat. Keep doing this, do it for a few minutes, you should pay attention to how you are feeling when you do this and kind of find a rythm that feels natural/comfortable with you... the exact times of the inhale/exhale will really differ from person to person. (The purpose of this stage, is to regulate your bodies rythm, your body is getting used to operating with less oxygen. Think of it like a marathon runner who goes high up into the alps, to train in a low oxygen environment. He or she is acclimating their body to a reduced oxygen environment.) Now once you've done this for a few minutes... around 2-5 minutes... Spend the next 15 or 20 seconds, taking quick rapid breaths... Full inhale then full exhale, it should take about 1-2 seconds, repeat this for about 15 seconds~ and then do a full inhale and hold your breath... You can pack more air into your lungs after your full inhale as well doing air gulps (lung packing), although don't over do this, I usually just do a couple gulps real quick. Practice this a few times a day, for a couple weeks. You'll be able to hold your breath 2 minutes without much effort at all in a seated position. I smoked cigarettes for 10+ years and have Asthma and can do 3-4 min in a seated position without too much effort. Only practice freediving or pushing your limits freediving with a buddy with experience in water rescue or even better practice with an instructor. While practicing breath holds is fine while sitting on your couch alone... going in the ocean alone to free dive is not recommended. Especially among inexperienced divers or divers pushing their limits.

[@greentoolsnyc3985]

@@kryptocake thanx much for the info i took a print screen of it I'll practice it before skating for more pushing foward

[@danielschechter8130]

Holding your breath is actually the "easier" part of a dive like this. Equalizing your ears at such depths is much harder. At the bottom she has less than one-tenth the volume of air in her lungs due to the pressure. And while descending head down, she has to force air from her lungs into her mouth and thence into her inner ears, in order to prevent her eardrums from bursting. Most people can learn to do a static (resting) breath-hold of three to four minutes. Very few people can learn to equalize their ears that far down. Which, of course, is why this was a world record. Additionally, the intense pressure on the diaphragm makes you REALLY want to breathe.

@lazer tag the divers are on a gas mixture from their air tanks called Trimix ,oxygen, nitrogen and helium. She is on a single breath of oxygen and over packed as much as possible,""lung packing"" a practice free divers do. On her decent down her lungs decompress the deeper she goes, due to the pressure of deep water. If she takes air from one of their tanks her lungs will over expand quickly and explode. Im not an expert nor do i dive but this is how i understood it... she also blacked out shortly after the first safety diver was trying to help her.... hope i was able to explain it a little bit...KZbin her story its unreal...
