The difference in the time that people stay under water depends on how much a person is saturated with oxygen. More precisely, a person himself cannot be saturated with oxygen, only blood cells have this supply. Therefore, in order to spend more time under water, a person should try to reduce oxygen consumption. This can be done by weakening the brain. Most professional swimmers try not to think at all while swimming, as our brain, due to its size, spends a lot of oxygen.
Instructions
Step 1
The next thing you should know before diving is that your body movements should be reduced to a minimum. Do not think that if you flounder harder, you will swim faster, in which case you will surface faster or even go to the bottom.
Step 2
When swimming under water, you should make only smooth movements, thus, as if cutting the water with your hands. The legs should also move smoothly and not very fast.
Step 3
The condition of your body plays a very important role. When diving under the water, you should relax a little, and then begin to smoothly move your limbs.
Step 4
For the first lessons of swimming underwater, the ideal option is a pool. You will feel safe there and can easily complete the following beginner exercise.
Step 5
Keep in mind that you must learn to dive before diving. Otherwise, you will only complicate the task.
Step 6
Go to the side and grab it with one hand, then dive under the water. First, learn how to work your legs correctly and restore breathing. Once submerged, make six alternating leg movements, after which you can emerge. Further complicate the task and do 8-12 repetitions. After you learn to work with your feet, let go of the side, put your hands straight in front of you and, in turn, spread them apart, as if you want to push the waves apart. To get started, also perform 6 arm movements. By gradually increasing the amount of exercise, you will achieve what you wanted.
