How to Increase Your Vital Capacity

Hyperventilating is one of those other things that I like to work into, which is increasing my my vital capacity. Don't do it when you're swimming ever. You never want to hyperventilate when and then get in the water because your body doesn't feel like it needs to breathe. The average person is about five liters of air. There's a free diver, world record free diver named Styx Farinson who could hold something like 14liters of air in his lungs. He's a bigger guy, but it shows just what you can do through breath practice and through doing breath holds.
