Let me explain. I’m 62. Always had ability to hold underwater. Years ago 3 min was routine. About 6 months ago I read this site about CO2 and O2 charts. Within 1 week I was at 5 min. During dry training 2 weeks ago hit 6 minutes. No hyperventilating but usually for me I will do a 3 min hold, then 3:30 hold then go for it. 2 min rest between. 5 min hold I do most days now. Still doing some CO2 training. 1:30 hold. 1 breath between 8 times. It’s quick. I’m a physician don’t have much time.
Almost no time spent in the water but I’m interested in that next.
1- what kind of potential do I have?
2- could I do even better in water(diving reflex)?
3- are there competitions(might be fun? Where are these?
4- I feel 7-8 min is achievable by end of the year. Where do I stack up and do they have age categories in these competitions?
Thanks in advance
