One of the most important parts of training for freediving, or any sport for that matter, is making sure you’re selecting and performing the right exercises.
These exercises need to be the right ones for you. They need to build the technical skill-set, physical strengths, and mental attributes that you need to improve and perform well in your sport, in this case, freediving.
These technical, physical, and mental adaptations are what we’d call sport-specific fitness, and it’s through this careful and specific exercise selection that we can effectively build our individual sport-specific fitness.
In other words, we cannot simply think, hope, or dream our way to new freediving PBS – sorry! Instead, we actually need to engage in freedive training if we want to get better.
This book is about that training. It’s about the exercises that I believe play the most important role in helping you improve your sport-specific fitness for freediving, and therefore improve your freediving performance and capabilities overall.
