About 4 months ago I started practicing underwater distance swimming on one breath. At first I could just about do 15m so I set the goal of 50m and today for the first time I made it. So an Olympic size pool length under water in one breath. Training to be relaxed and slow your heart down and stuff. I feel pretty damn good about that today.
164ft sounds better.  :D


Hmmm, someone has waayy to much "free time"  :devil :bolt:

Way to go batman.  :D

wow, 58m deep is intimidating. The pool I swim in is only 4m deep and that feels heavy
Where did you get 58m deep? He's talking distance, not depth. That would be over 190ft deep.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

well done Bat,

Smoking is such a horrible habit and congrats for kicking that also.   

I bought a house yesterday and that was nearly 3 years of saving every penny.    :cheers:

Cheers guys! I had to share this news, I was very happy. At the pool when it happened no one even noticed. They just wondered why I was smiling to myself like an idiot.

Just for fun. Since quiting smoking  three years ago I have been doing all sorts of stuff just to see if I can. Finally starting to get back to a normal healthy fitness level as if I had never smoked.

I love being in water. It's a long way to swim underwater and it really relaxes me to feel like a fish, don't know why


how do you relax?
When I try this , my body quivers, I gets anxious.
And congrats on quiting.  :rock

Ah! I didn't read the link and couldn't figure that one out. Still that is waaaay too deep to be freediving.
