Essentially any 'breathe up' in which you're consciously controlling your breathing is hyperventilation whaleshark. The total volume of air going through your lungs will be higher than tidal breathing - if it isn't, then you may as well have stuck to tidal breathing and not done a breathe up at all. Very slight hyperventilation is ok for most people, moderate to heavy hyperventilation is bad. If I'm doing a max dive, I stick pretty close to tidal but slightly above.
I tend to disagree with the whole belly breathing thing, never made any sense to me. I get the same volume regardless of which part of my chest I emphasise (not that anybody can actually inhale without using their diaphragm). I think pretty much all the breathing techniques that get taught to students play on the fact they involve pursing their lips, which makes the inhale 1. louder and 2. take longer, so it seems like more air is going in.
What does hyperventilation look like?Hi Youbuur, do u hv a video of what hyperventilation is look like? Some people said purge , breathup, and even 3sec inhale 6sec exhale can also cause hyperventilation easily. Im very confusing now, so anything other than normal breathing can cause hyperventilation easily? What does hyperventilating look like?
However, i was taught in the aida course that we never do hyperventilation before dive, but we can do breath up (double the exhale time after inhale). So that means breath up is not hyperventilation. Hyperventilation is only referred to short and fast breath in & out, is that correct?

I'm still rooting for ya. love to see you succeding at depth too!Nothing too exciting Kars, I'm doing Australian Nationals in August though. They've got plenty of depth in Bali.
I agree and know, as you say it is very subtle, and a very late warning, like 10 seconds. before bo, that is unlikely to be noticed by beginners. Tunnelvision, gray vision, hearing, a feeling that its getting much easier, lack of speed (because the coordination is getting very sloppy), feeling you're in a dream, a fogging mind and off cause the shaking bodyparts aka Samba. In my. experience the brain stops recording memory in the last 10 seconds before bo.Gads, disagree with Kars? Well, maybe a little bit. Based on a good bit of testimony from divers who really push the edge (Eric Fattah for example) anoxia does produce an urge to breath that is separate from the c02 response. Apparently, its subtle and much less strong than the co2 response, but it's there. The vast majority of divers, me too, never spend enough time in hypoxic conditions to figure out what it feels like.
