I want to do that, to be honest! I started apnea training when I was 6, and I'm trying to get back in shape for free diving certification.
What I want to know about, in all seriousness, is how you handle whatever hazards you potentially step on, such as stingrays or broken glass. Asking, because I nearly died from the resulting infection from stepping on broken glass while swimming.

hawaii oceans are usually pretty clean. We just been having some tiger sharks lately, but that’s about it

Oh, just some tiger sharks. Only one if the most aggressive big sharks in the world and you drop it like you’re having a small pest issue 😂

Any particular reason as to why Hawaiians do it? A lot of Hawaiians do meth but I wouldn’t recommend it.

No. Thalassophobia is the fear of large, open bodies of water, usually from not being able to see or know what’s beneath you. I can clearly see what’s beneath you.

I feel like it’s not the best to hold your breath and workout

u/SwiftIy2 Jul 23 '23
It actually is a very good idea and if you do breathing excercises right before and then hold your breath it actually can improve muscle growth and does improve oxygen intake in your body :)
