Re: Static with no warm-up

When I do statics with no breathe-up, my usual 'breathing' pattern is just two breaths, then hold, in the following pattern:
- Inhale, hold for 10-20 seconds, exhale slowly
- Inhale, hold for 10-20 seconds, exhale slowly
- Inhale, pack to the max, start the apnea
The latest I ever got the first contraction with that method was 5'15" after doing 3 hours of chi-gong and then watching TV and drinking a can of coke (phosphoric acid).
In order to have any hope in the no-breathing method of static, I think two things are necessary:
1. LONG rest without any physical activity (this is true for all static, but it shows up more without any breathe-up)
2. Generally alkaline body (a highly acidic diet will put you at a great penalty)
