I manage just over 50m now.. but have never timed it... also depending on my energy levels sometimes it takes longer, i can feel it.
I also do what Jon does, look down at the lane lines.. and when i see the cross bar i know there is about two more strokes until i reach the wall to turn..
I wouldnt think that you could compare it to a static apnea being that you are using much more energy.
I dont use any neck weights but there again i don't use a weightsuit or anything, the pool water is boiling. Perhaps i should try it and see if there is a difference.
