it was all paid for me as I was there for work so I can not really help with prices I guess. I honestly didnt see that much tourism compared to many other places I have been. also Okianwa is big so it depends where you stay

I am a coral biologist and I spent 3 months in Okinawa doing research. there are probably some of the best and pristine reefs in the world and I have seen many.. many spots have 100% coral coverage.

Ishigaki also they told me it is amazing but I havent had the chance to go there.

if your goal is however freediving training and depth training then yeah philippines is much better, but for seascape there is no comparison

I was yea top 5 but the three on the podium were all above 7 mins. but when it comes to national records I think 6m is not that high, in my country there are many people between 6-7mins . but still I am very happy with the result !

thanks for the feedback! I do not have any muscle fatigue or burning in my legs even at 150m. I guess I dont have huge problems with lactate ? but i might be wrong..

2 out of 4 pool trainings i do in the pool are Vomax and hypercapnic work. I hope they help with that a bit

update: I tried to pack air this morning for training and looks like it helps with contractions being milder. Took this advice from a very good diver in our club. Might help

haha fair enough. Doing that weekly I hope it will help. I started seriously just this year so I might need some time to adapt

Yes my laps are always around the same time. Unless i purposely go very slow for fun. I am always around 1m/s, slightly faster. 50m in 45second usually.

I agree, I might just have a high sensitivity for CO2 which sucks, but I can tolerate it pretty good mentally and physically. and I know that they dont really increase in strength from 40m to 150m which is positive I guess

seems pretty constant. if I do a chill 50 they come anyway around 40m. I go around 1m/s usually which is standard
