Apnea Walking: The Best Dry Training for Freedivers (3 Simple Exercises)

💦 Train your breath-hold. Add 30–90s in 1 month. ➡️ https://www.skool.com/underwatersquad Build lung power and CO2 tolerance on land with apnea walking. In this video, I’ll show you 3 simple dry exercises every freediver should train. 🐬 I'm Gert Leroy, freediving instructor and former national record holder. I've helped thousands of freedivers develop calmer breathing and better control. Freediving looks simple, but holding your breath under pressure is not. Most divers struggle because their breathing and CO₂ tolerance are untrained. They rush. They chase numbers. They miss the foundation. This is where freedivers build calm, awareness, and control first. Train from home. No pool needed. Structured. Calm. Consistent. 🎯 For new and returning freedivers who want structure and a long-term approach. 💦 Join now and get freedive-ready. ➡️ https://www.skool.com/underwatersquad 🎓 Start your own Skool group (affiliate, 9 dollars per month) ➡️ https://www.skool.com/signup?ref=47f6... #Freediving #Breathwork #BreathHold ⚠️ Disclaimer ⚠️ The breath-hold and breathwork exercises in this video are for educational purposes only. 🚗 Dry breath-holding should never be practiced while driving or in any situation where loss of consciousness could be dangerous. When practicing alone, never use a nose clip or mask. 💦 Breath-holding in water should only be done with an experienced buddy who is trained to perform a proper rescue in case of a blackout. ⚠️ Never use the Wim Hof Method or any other hyperventilation-based breathing techniques in the water, as this increases the risk of shallow water blackout. 🏥If you have any medical conditions, including but not limited to heart, lung, or neurological issues, consult a doctor before practicing. By participating, you assume full responsibility for your safety and well-being.
