Re: Overweight and freediving

Would it not matter HOW you lose the fat? If you do i fasting for a long period or if you do it with exercise. If you do it fasting what does that tell you? You gain seconds by losing weight or by adjusting your metabolism over a longer period of time? Maybe it is the same since fat is not a passive tissue, but an active "organ/gland" releasing a lot of hormones.

If you do it by exercise ist more interesting. Increased physical activity gives you a higher basal metabolism, and if you STILL manage to increase static time the fat must be a big reason. Or may it just be a lovering of heart beat and thus resting oxygen consumption?

I find it VERY hard, like Jome said, to extrapolate weightloss and static times. When I am physically very active (the time when i tend to loose weight) my static times seem to drop.
