Ever wondered why some dives feel effortless one week and noticeably harder the next? Your menstrual cycle could be part of the answer. Discover how hormonal changes throughout each phase of the cycle can influence your freediving and learn practical tips to help you train with your body, not against it.
As a sports dietitian and freediving athlete, I’ve seen firsthand how good nutrition, especially protein, can transform base training. Especially in pre-season, when pool, gym, and dry training pile up, muscles are under repeated stress. Protein supports repair, adaptation, and recovery, so when freedivers transition into depth training, the body is stronger, more resilient, and better prepared.
Iron is often overlooked, yet it’s essential for freedivers striving for better oxygen efficiency, endurance, and recovery. From hemoglobin production to strategic meal planning, discover how optimizing your iron intake and absorption can significantly enhance your breath-hold performance and overall diving potential.
