Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
It is a multi-center study. 2 different Spanish Freedivers Centres are included in the study (Madrid and Zaragoza).
Divers were randomly assigned to receive an experimental training (NR-HB) or to be included in the Control Group (UB).
The trial included two study visits. Each exercise training program will be applied sessions per week during 4 weeks. Participants received baseline assessments at the beginning of any intervention, and post-intervention assessments at the end of the fourth week.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: hook breathing removing nose-clip
It will apply a usual training program for 4 weeks, 4hours and 30 min per week distributed equally over 3 days in the week. In each session, it was performed 8 submaximes-dynamic apnoeas with 3-minute recovery between each one. Then was performed a maximal-dynamic apnoea. To finish the session, was performed a continuous training of free style swimming at moderate effort over 30 minutes. During that training, only this group will perform an experimental breathing protocol consisted of removing nose-clip previous to surface and then perform hook breathing during 20 seconds. This protocol was applied at the end of each of the 8 submaximes-dynamic apnoeas and after the maximal-dynamic apnoea |
Participants will perform 3 days per week of usual training, involving intense exercise 8 submaximes-dynamic apnoeas with 3-minute recovery between each one per session, and continuous training of free style swimming at moderate effort over 30 minutes, including warm-up, recovery between intervals and cool down. The experimental breathing protocol consisted on to remove nose-clip previous to surface and then perform hook breathing during 20 seconds. |

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Oxygen Saturation change
Time Frame: Before and after training intervention (after 4 weeks)
|
Oxygen Saturation recovery will be record by the experimenters every 5 seconds by a handheld pulse-oximeter during the 1 min recovery time after a maximal dynamic apnea.
The outcome was the length of the time to return to 95% SpO2 during the 1 min recovery time after maximal dynamic apnoea
|
Before and after training intervention (after 4 weeks)

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Heart Rate recovery
Time Frame: before and after training intervention (after 4 weeks)
|
Heart Rate will be record by the experimenters every 5 seconds by a handheld pulse-oximeter during the 1 min recovery time after a maximal dynamic apnea.
The outcome was the length of the time to stabilize heart rate during these 1 minute.
|
before and after training intervention (after 4 weeks)
|
Lung function (forced spirometry)
Time Frame: before and after training intervention (after 4 weeks)
|
The Spirometry will be perform according to American Thoracic Society criteria and was measured in litres.
The maneuver will be perform 3 times and recording the best one.
