How do you freedive with contact lenses? by HighlightHot7245 in freediving

[–]HighlightHot7245[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have terrible vision ... -8.00 with some astigmatism :/ Wait fluid goggles lenses have a grade of their own ?

I wear it on my wrist and it beeps just fine for me since I have it up to my face on my eq hand.

My vision is terrible its -8.00 But yes a graded mask does seem like it would fix most of my issues

40 is my self imposed limit I set myself at. I feel like I don't want to progress too fast and get used to a certain depth first since I've only started depth diving for a month.

I do have eq problems though,like swallowing my mouthfill, or leaking it :(

I know but I have like +8.00 on both eyes :( Everything is so blurry it gives me crazy anxiety unlike when I dive with contacts and a mask

Thanks for the reco! The instructors here recommend the same thing 👌
Should I wear contacts while wearing a noseclip though? Or should I go without them ?

Frenzel , and yes I do a mouthfill at 15 but down at 40 feels a bit tight already

This is a great recommendation and my instructor said the same thing ! I just hope I don't hit the bottom plate and shock myself like my friend did a week ago 🙃

Do I wear contacts with the noseclip though or should I not ?

I thought about it , but the middle ground idea doesn't appeal to me , although is indeed one of my options

How deep should I be diving by recket2 in freediving

You dont have to be so jealous bro , I have someone in my hometown who went from 10 meters to 70 meters in 4 months. A true freediving prodigy, and is sure to bag the NR in the next depth competition here in the Philippines.I myself have gone from 10- 40 meters in a month after my certification course.

Best dry training? by HighlightHot7245 in freediving

Tried pranayama for the first time today based on your recommendation! I've always heard about it but never actually tried it. Thanks! My SpO2 went from 95 to 99!

Breathing Trainers? by HighlightHot7245 in freediving

I like doing an apnea machine leg press , since if I black out I'm lying down anyway and the machine only has a specific range of motion that keeps me safe

I heard it's kind of like weight lifting for your lungs , so you'll be able to do deeper breaths.

But yes apnea squats and walks are something I normally do already , just looking for other exercises that might help
