Back to Menu

  • These tables are provided for use by trained freedivers only.
  • The introduction period (which must be at least 20 seconds) is the time you require between pressing 'Start' and the table begining.
  • You will be given countdown warnings at 15, 10 and 5 seconds before a breath hold.
  • Table A calculates a series of 8 breath holds of equal length with a progressivley shorter rest period in between each.
  • The rest period entered must be at least 7 times greater that the figure by which it is reduced by (to enable 7 decreasing length rest periods).

    • Intro: (s)
    *Breath hold: (s)
    Initial Rest period: (s)
    Decrease rest time by: (s)
      Use speech
     

    These figures will produce a training table of 8 equal length breath holds, with decreasing rest periods in between each.
    * The breath hold entered SHOULD NOT be your maximum attainable breath hold. The time entered is used in the calculated series.
    Please read the disclaimer before using this software.




    DISCLAIMER:- Holding your breath can be dangerous. Do not hold your breath in water what ever the depth, bath, swimming pool any where until you have been taught how to do this safely by some one who knows.
    NEVER hold your breath in the water ALONE. This means some one you trust and has been trained needs to be in the water with you and able assist you instantly. Not a life guard 10m away.
    Freediver holds no responsibility for any way you these tables. If you have any doubts DO NOT use them and go on a good safe freedive course. There are names and links on our home page of people we are very happy to recommend and would send our own children on:
    By using this software I agree NEVER to hold my breath in the water ALONE.
