Dear Ben, Pyrowolf,
That is purging? A huge breath in and then, force as much as possible out--and then another huge breath in.
Thanks. I'm still new enough to this sport that I don't always understand all the terms.
Don't you worry about forcing too much Co2 out, and then, not knowing your signals when you need to breathe? I avoid that sort of thing--because I almost NEVER have a spotter--can't find one. So, as Kars suggested--I ''dive conservative." I'd like to do more--but hey--I value my life on EARTH--even if I'm HEADED FOR HEAVEN! I drown myself at the YMCA, I don't finish my novels--WHICH I'M WRITING FOR JESUS! Human souls more important than GREAT Numbers.
Still--I wish I could do more--'CAUSE SOME OF MY STORY CHARACTERS WILL--and I'm gonna need the INFO to Write about it! Why I pick brains on the site, why I do whatever I can get by with--IN THE POOL!
Writer's Rule: The best writing comes from the author's own experience. The second best--from VERY good research!
Ah--Ben--You did ask a question? Static or Dynamic? I'm not sure WHAT you'd call it! I'm not still, I'm dancing, so I'd hesitate to call it static. Dynamic? Well, I am moving--but in circles and gyrations, not going for any distance. Just for fun and relaxation.

You did 68 meters--Dynamic--no fins? That is--what, over 200 feet? WOW! My PB in Dynamic is 150 feet. Sometimes I wish the Americans would've caught up with the rest of the world in the metric system--LOL!--BUT yeah--anything over 200 feet has MY RESPECT.



Wanna translate for this lousy mathmetician?
DO tell me how that Static went.
I once netted around 4 minutes with a Peter Frampton song--"Show Me the Way." I pick slow moving, relaxing songs, ones that bring back Good memories.

Elton John's "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" works well, too.
Water Rat--lovin' it
