I have been told that with experience comes the ability to extend your bottom time by optimizing the amount of air you breathe. In OW class, we were taught that we need to take long deep breaths and exhale long and slow in order to increase the oxygen to Co2 ratio. I just read an experienced divers post on another thread who claimed that student divers burn air up to 4 times faster than he does. Like anyone else, I would like to burn up air slowly and extend my bottom time.
What is the methodology for optimizing breathing so your tanks will last longer?
