I fully understand that all free divers are different and have different lung capacities/ bottom times.
But how do you tell when your body has gone through too many contractions and is finally signalling for an ascent.
From training, i have found that contractions come later and later as my body adapts.
From this is know that my body is better at dealing with the CO2 and is using less O2, but how do i know when its too many contractions and my O2 levels are actually low or at their lowest before SWB.
This is very important to me as i am now training for better bottom times at my usual depths for spearfishing techniques.
I dive with a buddy, but still don't want to experience a black out. lets say if i dive to 18m and stay there for 1:30, within that time lets say i go through 5 contractions in a row and they subside again. Do i come up at the next contraction even if i feel good (which is what i have been doing) or can i still stay longer until i get a different feeling..what feeling?
