Week 12 | static breath hold 5:45 - pleasant but failed
Today’s training was about simplicity and presence, not performance. No distractions, just a calm, mindful static breath-hold. The gentle rhythm of the water and the absence of pressure created a peaceful experience. Sometimes, it's not about pushing limits, but finding peace within.
My training wasn’t planned for high performance today—it was a dive into simplicity, into presence. I slipped into the water, my neoprene socks adding a subtle buoyancy to my legs. It felt comforting, as though the water was cradling me just right.
I closed my eyes. No goggles, no distractions.
The water flowed gently across my face, a soothing rhythm that lulled me into stillness.
No hyperventilation, no breath-ups, no elaborate warmups—just a few minutes of relaxation before I sank into the static breath hold. The absence of preparation felt liberating. I wasn’t chasing numbers or pushing boundaries. Instead, I focused on releasing tension from my body, letting every muscle find its natural state of ease.
