Its like saying have you ever met a marathon runner that doesn't run. If you have time to spare the gym will help a bit but get out diving is the way forward. Just train technique in a pool then when you have good safety cover go for a push.
I have heard a rumour of a top freediver doing a lot of apnea cycling. But to be fair they dive whenever they can too.

I thoroughly agree with you. If you are a sprinter, sprints will help you the most, if you are a freediver, freediving will help you the most, if you are a cycler, cycling will help the most. I apologize for seeming abrasive or argumentative, but just for the record, sprinters also work in the gym (I ran track), cycles also use other forms of cardio, and Kobe boxes to help with his endurance in basketball. Improving overall physical condition will always help in any physically demanding sport.
