whats your static, dry breath hold? How did you get there?

I was just curious about what the average breath hold capibilty of the spearos on this site is, and if there were any tips on how to increase time

I did a 5:16 in a very controlled environment.  If you're going to practice statics do it on dry land.

Curious as to why you're interested in statics. 

yea i do it on dry land, and i'm interested in static because i like the challenge

My best was 3:37 back when I was actively Ab dive.  Was planning to attend Yoga class to improve bottom time but...other things got in the way 

My longest breath hold was 30 seconds. Ya know, those thirty seconds, after you knock up the boss' daughter, and you ask her to marry you, and for thirty seconds, you pray she says no, so you are off the hook for being anchored down by a ritual called matrimony.

My longest static breath hold was 1:45.  Rick has a good apnea table that I will forward to you.  I have not been using it that long but have seen a huge difference.  I also have a few o2 deprivation exercises that help increase dynamic breath hold.  That is of course if your at me level.  If your static is more than a 1:45 then forget everything I just said

i can do 3 without warmup and told my dad i wouldn't go past 5, so 5 is my "record" so far. but i'd still love to se the exercises you do

The puff, puff, pass breathing excercise seems to work for some of the Nor Cal divers
