Back up a bit. Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but your reply sounded a little cavalier about safety. If you are seriously training, by definition you will be pushing your limits. That requires a buddy dedicated only and specificly to watching you and who will be in the water, right next to you for at least part of your dynamics and who knows what to do if you BO. To do less can get you killed. Even when not pushing you need a dedicated buddy to be safe. Lifeguards don't count except in very very special circumstances. Sorry to sound mother henish, but there are a lot of dead divers out there who did not follow the safety precautions you can learn on this site. Spend some time reading about safety in these forums. Its worth it.
