Folks, you spend too much time focusing in achieving results in terms of improved/adapted physiology. Let me tell you that the key is not how much you do it but how you do it?
Proper equalisation is another story and it needs to be trained in that way, or maybe not if you reach a beyond physical level.
First, have you learned how to breathe properly, not just the typical belly breathing that most trainees do. Just do a bit of research in this area and you'll find out that deep breathing is far more complex than that, and it will probably take you a minimum of a year to control full abdominal breathing plus the three locks. This kind of breathing will slow down your HR plus improved diving reflex.
Some Chinese masters won't allow their disciples to advance in their training unless they have learned how to breathe properly - as I said- for at least a year.
Getting back to the metaphysical issue, what I am talking about is controlling your body and its functions with your mind -and guiding chi if you use Chi Gung meditation- otherwise mind-breath-body control as in Yoga. So investing most of our training in meditation will definitively improve performance to a different level. Current breatholding records will be pulverised not by minutes but by hours (as some Yogis and Taoist masters have already accomplished). Current records in terms of constant depth (+/- 100 m.) will also be history if someone masters meditation and applies it to this environment.
The following (extensive) link will help you to understand the power of the mind (and chi) over the body:

And the last question is:
What would it happen if the apneist achieves the where a transmutation between matter and energy -according to E=mc^2-occurs? Theoretically is possible but has anyone achieved it to a full extent. Think a bit here.
Good luck with your training, Gerard.

seriously though, has this kind of thing ever been witnessed by respected scientists, published in a highly regarded journal and generally accepted by other researchers? if not, then why not...? quite frankly, i won't believe any of it until it has been proved beyond doubt.
