Whats yours?
I like to keep fit and preform regular cardio as well as lifting the 3 basic moves{ squat bench dead}. I also find the punch bag to be an excellent method of cardio training for diving, 3x 3 min rounds 3 times week , usually as a warm up to my lifting.
anyway..... 2 weeks ago my friend had his basic ow course, and myself and another buddy tagged along for dives in the area. I was delighted to find that I was using very little air and lumbering up and down from the slip was no longer an issue.
I put it down to the bag work.
an excellent choice for cardio training for diving imo. Maybe due to the fact that when you push it, your body goes from aerobic to anaerobic, using different systems ect. I think this is key, as it actually builds a little bit of strength and power. Just a little. I found that when I used to run a lot that I was less comfortable in the water, even thought I was cardio fit.
Either way , it made my diving much much easier and enjoyable.
