I am moving to thailand in January for a freediving internship which will hopefully take me to instructor level (I have AIDA **). I'm just looking for advice on anyway I can prepare my mind and body for this journey. I'm not super in shape right now so I'm doing running and swimming, but other than that and some tables occasionally I don't really know where to start. Any help would be appreciated, cheers and take care.

Welcome to Deeperblue. The Freediving subforum has a lot of information on fitness as it relates to freediving. I encourage you to use the search function at the top of the page, browse the Freediving sub, and ask questions if you haven't found what you're looking for.
Hi Morgan, Yes check out the freediving area. For general fitness, weights and/or circuit training might complement your current activities. Yoga seems to help some (relaxation, focus, breath control,...) with diving. Like most activities, actually doing it is probably the most effective training for it.
