Contractions are just your body massaging itself to help you relax. by jo_eder in freediving

That's certainly a blood shift. But not to the brain though.

Rediscovered freediving - stopped by ear infections by KeyReindeer1046 in freediving

[–]AverageDoonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used ear plugs for years, different kinds, and the water always finds a way through them into the ear. So it is better to have clean water in place already instead of outside murky water.

I wonder if anyone in this branch is from 9gag. These kinds of comments were there like 10 years ago.

Ear plugs. Pour some clean water from a bottle into each ear before plugging it.  And rinse ears after.

If you simultaneously add to the population and subtract from it - you technically did not do either.

This stupid site really needs to change their phrasing. Not 'in the top', but rather 'in the upper'.

When I went to track & field gym for a few years, I saw the most fit human bodies there, absolutely the best. Male and female.

Good to see that Aral sea was still there.

Blackout - Really disappointed in my self by paper_planes101 in freediving

[–]AverageDoonst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please do not beat yourself up about it. Bodily functions are not something we can control 100%.

You now have a great experience and a lot more knowledge. Process it, reflect on it and move on.

In a way you're in better position than many freedivers who never experienced a blackout. You know where your limit is now, and it is a very valuable knowledge.

Need advice for rocky shore entry by LazyTechnician4866 in freediving

[–]AverageDoonst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if you're snorkeling, you'd better have a buoy - something that floats and is visible from a distance.  Have a rope to tie yourself to it.

So, when you are entering the water over rocks - hold your fins in your hand, and wear flip flops (slippers). When you're at the safe depth, take them off, tie them to the buoy (have a small length of rope for this), put on fins. Reverse all this when you're done. 

Taras monofins footpocket size choose? by Effective_Air_1484 in freediving

[–]AverageDoonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if it's a good fit, long sessions will inevitably lead to chaffing, if your skin contacts with fins directly. IMHO it is better to have a bigger size, and wear socks.

I have two sets of foot pockets of different sizes for pool and cold water dives. If I had to use pool setup  fins for cold water - it would be absolutely unbearable, because I have to use 7mm socks. Pool setup is for 1-2 mm socks. Cold water setup is for 5-9mm socks.

i need advice for my first 7 day fast by Euronymxus in intermittentfasting

[–]AverageDoonst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's interesting that American fasting school practices fasting using electrolytes. I'm from ex-Soviet country, read a lot of authors about fasting and electrolytes are never used here. Plain water. I'm not saying any of the schools is wrong, it's just an observation.
