I'm new on the diving scene, and am currently in the state of fighting against my lungs in an attempt to prolong dive time by conserving air. I'm still at the stage of being consciously aware of my breathing technique.
I guess it's easy to say "breathe normally" - but that's something I'm not quite accustomed to at this early stage of diving. Is it better to take slow deep inhalations / exhalations? Maintain a small tidal volume? slow inspiration, quick expiration.
i've often watched our dive guides - and in my rather prolonged expiration phase, all I see from them is a short burst of exhaled air, compared with my long trail of bubbles? ...... confused....
