Monday 6/19/2017 (post is 2 days late)

O2 dry apnea (all rests 2:00
1:30
1:45
2:00
2:15
2:30
2:45
3:00 (9 contractions)
3:15 (20 contractions)
3:30 (35 contractions)

Much closer to normal number of contractions for me but still high because it was a hot day. I think the previous few times where I was getting 50 contractions at the 3:00 mark was because I was doing them first thing in the morning and I was starving/stomach growling.

No, for the last 2 months before spearfishing I focus on static and dynamic apnea.

Pushing 4 minutes now. Great progress.

Thanks, I think I can go over 4:00 but I have a mental block with milestones
