Tables vs max hold.

[sxc]

Is there a generally accepted ratio between tables and max hold? I'm doing the tables dry.

I'm currently doing a 8xO2 table which starts at 3:15 maxing out at 4:45 (increasing by 15s on each hold, repeating 4:45 twice for the last two holds) with a 2 minute vent.

I haven't done a max hold in a while, and don't really want to attempt a dry max hold at the moment, just curious about how they usually compare.

Second question: full inhale CO2 tables vs exhale CO2 tables.. what should the ratio be between a full inhale table vs an exhale? If I'm doing 8x3:15 on inhale, what should I be doing on exhale?

Thanks!

The last hold in O2 is generally around 80-90% of PB. Beginners often do their PB in an hypoxic table.

Full/empty is roughly 2:1 to 2.5:1
