Which one is better? Breath hold on inhale, or exhale? The answer is; it really depends. The main goal of the challenge is to build COโ‚‚ tolerance. This may not be easy, or comfortable, at first (it's a challenge, after all). But stick to it; and you'll notice a sense of being in control; even when the going gets tough. Remember... ๐˜พ๐™Šโ‚‚ ๐™๐™ค๐™ก๐™š๐™ง๐™–๐™ฃ๐™˜๐™š ๐™„๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™๐™š๐™–๐™ก ๐™๐™ง๐™–๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™‚๐™ง๐™ค๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™ - Most discomfort isnโ€™t from lack of oxygen but from rising COโ‚‚. - The goal isnโ€™t to fight that feeling, but to get comfortable with it. - Over time your body and mind learn that the first urge to breathe isnโ€™t an emergency. ๐—š๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜‚๐—ฝ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐—ฎ๐˜€๐˜? Be sure to follow the following Pro Tip to relieve some of the pressure; and break the two-minute barrier (or; whatever was your previous limit). ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ ๐—ง๐—ถ๐—ฝ: Fill up your lungs to about 70% of maximum capacity; or until you feel comfortable. Inhale fully; and gently release some air until the pressure on your chest feels more manageable. Until you hold your breath for 3-4 minutes or longer; the duration of the hold is going to be purely determined by your ability to stay calm; and the extra inhaled air does not offset the discomfort in the chest.

I have struggled a lot with co2 tolerance, still trying to break 3 min mark comfortably. Calmness is definitely key as you mentioned. One night I was doing my O2 table when I was extremely extremely sleepy and I was able to hold breath much longer than usual. Trying to keep mind calm during holds now

Post all your Breath Hold Times here! Let's go & double your breath hold! ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿซ Step 1: Take an inhale, start your stopwatch & hold your breath. Step 2: Post your time here so you can get feedback and points Step 3: Head on over to the Classroom & follow the instructions Already participated last week, or last month? No worries, you can post and do it as much as you want (as a matter of fact, we'd only encourage it ๐Ÿ˜Ž) And if you done the challenge once (or twice), feel free to shake it up a little bit. Do exhale breath holds only for a week, or take it easy and do 1-2 breath holds a day without going for a max. Variety is the spice of life.

Hi everyone, haven't posted in a while but still continuing my training. I do my CO2 table everyday and today had an amazing observation. Right after third or fourth hold, I checked in oximeter and my heart rate was 46 BPM! I wear smartwatch which tracks my heart rate and usually it drops in high 40s when I sleep but never when I'm awake, I couldn't capture the 46 mark but could still capture 49 when it started going up

@Manuel Ruep Yeah I do a lot of things and almost everything impacts the parasympathetic system. I've seen some great effects

Day 2 Couldn't do 3 min hold, held till 2:30

Hej all, How do you get to a 20+ minute breath hold? Well, first you get a tank of pure oxygen... and then... Oh... you want to safe & convenient practice you can do at home. Ok - you may not get to 20 minutes without the oxygen machine ๐Ÿ™ƒ Holding your breath as long as your fave song in your playlist? I'd say: Challenge accepted! Unless it is like November Rain (but even that can be done in theory). So - where to start? Every day, there is a new video in the Classroom. Post your times, share your experiences. And once you are done, come back for more (and shake things up a little!) Before you know it, you'll be a dolphin like Stig!

@Jorge A I used to Co2 tables Primarily but during long holds, I feel I get overwhelmed with thoughts and I'm not able to push further because of mental barrier so started doing O2 tables

Post Your Breath Hold (Week 19: May 5th 2025 - May 11th 2025)
Hej fellow ๐Ÿฌ's! This is the main post to post your breath holds time & share your experiences. You really want to do this because: - It keeps you accountable so you don't miss a day! - Every week you have the chance to win Breath Hold Mastery - You want to climb the Leaderboards and become the first Sea Turtle! - Because it is fun! - Oh - and something about CO2 tolerance, mental mastery and stuff... P.S. There are a total of 7 days to the challenge. Head on over to the Classroom for your first lesson!
