Breath Hold Training
Breath hold training builds CO₂ tolerance with dry controlled holds and full recoveries. Water practice requires certified supervision; medical clearance matters.
Breath hold training practices controlled apnea after exhale or inhale to improve CO₂ tolerance, calmness, and freediving prep—not for use underwater without certified instruction. Never train in water alone; avoid if pregnant or with untreated hypertension.
Short dry holds with full recovery repeats are the safer entry.
Common questions
-
Is breath hold training safe for everyone?
No—avoid if pregnant, epileptic, or with uncontrolled cardiovascular issues. Train dry, never alone in water, and stop at strong urge to breathe.
