Preamble: I wrote this quite some time ago and then never posted it, my life unravelled and I had little time and zero energy for anything else than being miserable all day for several months. That is why I stopped distributing my wisdom via this blog and in my Instagram posts; my training did continue…
Preface: Some time ago I announced a Ask Me Anything on Instagram and that I would answer in my stories, but who am I kidding…theres no way I can answer a question in one short sentence. SO I told myself that I’d answer on a regular post, and would you know it, not even 2200…
I have a love-hate relationship with static. 3 years ago when I started training again, I had little access to a proper pool, so coach Bub from hell made me do a truckload of dry statics: co2 tables, max attempts, FRC sets, O2 sets, high HR statics, and all sorts of combinations of the above.…

It’s shocking to see how few people get this right; of course I expect beginners and relatively new freedivers to get it wrong, but I see too many competition level freedivers who do max dynamics having the wrong buoyancy. Wrong weighting means that you…
A couple of days ago I came to the realisation that I have to accept that I am WHERE I AM, which is not necessarily WHERE I SHOULD BE, or WHERE I WOULD LIKE TO BE. In fact I’ve been struggling with training for about 2 months now, due to a combination of factors (some…
I was asked to give a lecture at Deepspot (the deep pool in Poland), about a subject of my choosing and as I was flying there I opened a blank powerpoint file and tried to write down a presentation. I have a deep love for this subject and I taught it several times during my…
A few days ago I posted a video of a slow-mo DNF dynamic turn, which prompted some people to ask questions about different turn-styles and which one is the best for bifins, so I posted another video of the same turn done with bifins, just to illustrate its efficiency, since many think that this turn…
PART 4 I HAVE DONE 5 DIVES to the bottom of the blue hole in the last 10 days and it was a lot of fun, but i may be losing steam. Since it is not possible to get more depth here, I had to give myself a new goal for every new dive to…
