It is necessary
Constant training
Instructions
Step 1
A beginner diver should learn to breathe through the mouth. Breathing should not be frequent, but on the contrary, deep and calm. Before diving into the lungs, it is necessary to draw as much air as possible and completely relax. You need to breathe with your stomach, exhale the air completely, without leaving it in your lungs, and draw in fresh with the next breath. A pause should be made after each inhalation and exhalation. It is necessary to retain air by expanding the chest; many people make the mistake of blocking the exit of air by squeezing the larynx.
Step 2
In addition, it is not necessary to constantly train underwater, breathing exercises can be successfully carried out while lying in bed at home.
Step 3
To increase the time spent under water, you must try not to waste your energy. To do this, you should not make an effort to dive and not make unnecessary movements, but simply hold onto a ledge with your hands. In the pool, a ladder can play the role of a ledge.
Step 4
Each time you hold your breath, you need to keep track of the time using a stopwatch to track the process and it is advisable to start a notebook to record the results. When holding your breath in your mouth, you do not need to hold the air.
Step 5
Daily practice will help to hold the breath longer, after a while the person becomes calmer and more balanced. Although after spending 3-5 minutes under water, any person will begin to worry, so their emotions need to be calmed in order to reduce the heart rate and oxygen consumption by the body. Favorable memories will help you to calm down faster, it is better to close your eyes, forget about where you are at the moment and imagine that now is a vacation, there are close people around with whom it is pleasant to spend time.
Step 6
It is much easier not to breathe in cool water for a long time, as the heart rate decreases and blood pressure rises.
