Hi all im new to the board and have a question regarding free diving. I have been snorkeling for years now and started spearfishing 2 years ago. I would like to improve my breath hold. Currently out of water i can hold my breath for 1:20 a bit below average and i can dive to around 20 feet for a few seconds try not count since it screws with you staying calm so dont have an exact time. I would like to improve on this. I will have access to a pool through the year and want to know what types of exercises should i be doing. Also out of the water should i be doing alot of cardio how much and how often also any breathing exercises that actually work. Im 18 years old and fit 145 lbs 6 ft. My goal is to be able to have a 1:30 minute breath hold under water by next summer not sure if that goal is set to high. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!
