Would FRC be better or static with no warmup on one 80% breath? OR..would i be better off just sticking to the tables?

Where do you dive recreationally? What depths, time, etc... Spearo or just for fun?
Dry breath hold training is in my view a separate discipline all together. Many things change in the water. In my view, always best to train in the water.
If you prefer dry training, then perhaps apnea walking, hiking or cycling (on a stationary bike) would be a better option than dry statics or tables. I haven't done dry breath holds for training in many years. Search this site for posts on those options (and articles, too) as there's been a lot written and discussed on the subject.
