How to do a 50 meter underwater swim (Olympic pool dynamic apnea)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 окт 2024
- Here are my top tips on how you can do a 50 meter dynamic apnea swim. 50 meters is the length of an Olympic pool.
This is also the length needed to swim under water to pass the entry tests of the Navy seals.
When training underwater you should always have a buddy to rescue you if you get a blackout. Never train alone

I'm 13 and I followed these steps and practiced now I can swim 50 meters. Thank you your videos help me and others out very much.
Please just a question! When I take a deep breath before I sink, I find difficult to stay under water, so I use more energy and I run out of oxygen quickly, and If I did not take a deep breath before sink, I run out of oxygen quickly, so how could I do it in effectiv way without wearing a belt?
Broke the world record after seeing your video and I'm 3 years old. Good video btw.
+alergej impressive writing for a 3 year old
Hahaha nice try doe;) It's pretty much impossible bcs your lungs aren't even fully grown soo. 2 Rly good writing for a 3 year old

Made my 50 meter swim, touched the edge then went into a blackout. Proud of myself for pushing my mind past the urge to breathe, but I’ll admit I gave into the panic near the end and began to swim faster. I burned a lot of oxygen doing that and is probably why I blacked out. Thanks for the info. (Of course, I had a buddy there for the swim. Always be safe)
How did you surface? It seems likely you might have had a pulmonary dump.
@@BryanApperson So I reached the pool edge, surfaced, and got in a gasping breath or two. I was seeing stars and then next thing I remember was waking up in my buddy's arms. I was told everything happened super quick though, everything simultaneously. I guess after that breath, I let go of the pool edge and started sinking down, bubbles coming out of my mouth.
@@BryanApperson I'm going to look into what a pulmonary dump is. Thanks for the feedback! The whole experience is very interesting to me, and I want to be able to do these 50m swims without the fear of that happening again.
@@helebeyond3353 generally you want to breat out right before surfacing and not go out above your collar bone. You should look into a freediving certification, I learned quite a bit doing mine. But yeah, samba or blackout is not always preventable.
@@BryanApperson Will definitely look into freediving cert. Thanks Bryan!
I managed to do this for the first time yesterday in a 25 meter pool. The need to relax after each armpull can't be understated. In my experience, if you're having to do five armpulls for 25 meters, that's one too many. Likely my greatest swimming feat in my life when I thought I'm no longer the swimmer I was as a teenager xD
Lol, I can consistently do 25 easily meters, but 50 meters sounds like a nightmare. I hope one day I can do tht
@@nathanlieu6840 If 25 meters is comfortable for you, 50 should be within reach. The way I did it was working up to it progressively, starting from just turning at the other end for each set, then add the double arm pull, and then another, until I could do a set of 50 meters. It just takes practice and conditioning.
This video is excellent in its recommendations/instructions/advise.
Very clear and easy to understand with a bit of wit 👍🏼😄
I just accomplished maybe 2 weeks a ago 20 m underwater with one breath and my goal is 50. This video is perfect timing.
With recent surgery a few days ago , I am restricted from the water for 6 weeks so I’m home getting guidance from RUclips and low and behold this video pops up for me!!
Because of you, I now know what I can do differently once I get to start practicing again.
I’m excited and motivated!
Thank you so much 👍🏼
Christian! It worked! It worked!! This video got me through my 50 meter underwater swim as part of my SCUBA test! I watched this like 8 or 9 times the night before. When my turn came, I did exactly what I learned on THIS video! As I was approaching the end, that out of breath feeling began to creep in. I kept hearing your voice, do not be lured by the out of breath feeling. I just kept telling myself that I had enough air, and this was a natural reaction! I DID IT! I DID IT! there is NOOO way I would've been able to do it had I not discovered your video. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
That's great! Congratulations. I'm very happy my advice can help people :)
For the trained swimmers here. If you want to practice no breath freestyle (or butterfly for the suicidal) do 10x50m/yards. First 50 is 9 breaths. Next is 8. Then all the way down to none. I have done this twice, and holy shit it sucks. It is a great feeling having completed it and knowing that it will be another year until next time.
I LIKE TO DO HANDSTANDS UNDERWATER BECAUSE I CANT DO IT ON LAND
Omg i fell you
Saaame brudda

Hello Christian. Watched ur video this morning, and right after, made a semi Olympic all the way under the water for the first time. I'm so glad! Thank you
2:03 perfect example for total internal reflection
you helped me, as a competative swimmer it looked cool to do a lane under water...first 25-30 meters, now a full 50 meters without stressing
Thats great. Thanks for letting me know.
Christian Wedoy, don't you get real painfull pressure when you are diving that deep?
Diving physics states that the deeper you go the larger ratio of 02 to C02 in your lungs, meaning you'll go farther before you need to breathe, also the weight of the water will keep you down, making it easier to glide.
I am very excited to try this out! I have swam (swum?) for 2 weeks regularly now so diving and being able to swim under water for a few minutes will be my new goal.
I was always the best in my class in holding my breath and swimming, and because of this video i got even better than before! Thx Christian :)
By holding your breath, How many metters can you go underwater?
@@milmolas4913 10 i'm new
Being underwater just looks like so much fun, you feel like you're flying, you're not restricted to the ground, you have so much more space to work with. Imagine your whole house was filled with water, you could basically fly inside your whole house
Yep swimming is my thing
all your videos are so relaxing that i watch these vids to hold breath like your voice and you swimming so smoothly is so relaxing
You don't use more oxygen the deeper you go, totally false. The deeper you go, the more the water pressure compresses your lungs, creating a higher O2 to CO ratio and therefore increasing one's breath. That comes straight from SEAL training.
Sam Fisher so what do u do to swim longer underwater?
sam fisher...SEAL training? you won the internet. most people wouldn't get the reference
When you dive down the volume of air in your lungs decreases and pressurises the air. That pressure pushes more oxygen into your bloodstream and your cells use it faster as it is more available. On the way up, the pressure in your lungs is far less and your body gets less oxygen from it. This is part of the reason that shallow water blackouts occur so much...
This came from my human structure and function unit...
yeah lol
keepiticy haha he's definitely a seal
My best distance under water is 75 meters ! I'm a swimmer so I'm doing a lot of does thing during pratice !
As a lifeguard at a pool (25 yards, 8 lanes and diving well), I started with only being able to swim 3 pool lengths. After 2 weeks, I could go 4 lengths. Each week after, I added another length until I was going 11 lengths (275 yards). A clear head, staying relaxed, slow controlled pulls and glides, as well as a strong kick helped a lot. My technique also improved. I also found that swimming along the very bottom made it easier. Being a shorter pool than 50m, I could take more advantage of the push offs from the wall, though. Keep in mind that I was a swimmer and long distance runner for years prior to doing this, so most of it was learning technique and practicing breathing control.
liloope I call bs. The world record for DNF free dive (aka what you just described) is 244 M. With a few months training and your background, you would be LUCKY to be able to swim 100 M on a single breath, a bit more if you were wearing fins. Those guys train for years and years in free diving to be able to reach even 200 M. Look up dnf world records and tell me you swam further than them.
I can swim 25 metres underwater in a 25 metre pool it is an amazing experience your advice is very good the calming down before I start is espcially important for me ..
Impressive breath holds and nice video taking skills. I'd be so jerky you probably couldn't tell what was happening. Good tip about the not hyperventilating part. Very good !
+Richard B thanks
50 m dynamic apnea is my daily routine. Smoked some pot once and did the 50m and was facinated by the underwater experience.
using the breathing technique from the video, i held my breath for a solid 2 minutes before letting a breath slip
yes, i realize that that’s not really impressive, but I still felt like commenting it
+Toby Ryberg
2 min is longer then most people
Thanks Christian, that's truly sweet and helpful. I've been subconsciously experimenting with this for years! I will follow more of your advice today! onwards!
10m before 30m after and I am still training!!!
Thank you!!!!
Great. Good job.
I didnt give no dams about swimming until I saw your vids. Your vid helped me. On surface I was able to do 1 minute in one breath. After trying your technique for a couple of times. I went from like 1 to 2 minutes in 5 minutes :D I want to be a diver now. Thanks for all tips and tricks, we appreciate you sharing your experience and things you know with us c:
'the more deeper you swim , the more oxygen you use' that is new for me, by them training my trainer told me for dynamic do not try to swim deeper but he didn't explain why? Thanks for the info.
I was able to swim 3 metres under water now I can swim 7 metres under water thanks alot
After years of practice to go farther underwater with one breath for some reason my technique evolved to use my arms sequentially instead of both at the same time. I mean I stroke one arm first and the other one right after that. I measured that I go slightly farther by this way. I am not sure but I always thought as if some of the energy got lost into turbulance or something if I used both arms at the same time and fast.
Bro,your pool it just amazing
I have a really deep pool and my dad watched me go down to about 8 to 10 feet in our pool the for the tips in ur breathing tip vid it really helped me go deeper
+Whispy In A Vortex
Great, glad i can help
A couple tips are skin tight shorts and small goggles and swim cap to reduce drag. Also body undulations combined with the full strokes to hang onto momentum without burning up too much oxygen.
i can swim 50 m, but i want to be able to swim 75, i also noticed how cold water makes it a lot harder to control your breath compared to warm water. it´s easier in warm water i think
15m be4 25m after but maybe last 5m, i was not completley underwater but still felt great reaching from start to end of pool in one breath amazing feeling, thank you for your vidz plz keep them coming.
Good job. I bet with some practice you can do 50 m
I held my breath unconciously throughout this video lol
I would have SO MUCH FUN diving deep into this pool. But obviously i would use my aqua fins on my feet for better propulsion.
i can only swim 25 meters today. will try again tomorrow. will practice ur tips! thanks!
0:54 rip kid
BlUEFlo How did you see him 😂😂
Oᖴ😂❤️
@@extraaccount2295 of?
Oof
@Mishal Aljadei he came up
In the description you mention this is part of Navy SEAL training but the 50m underwater swim in BUD/s you have to do a sonmersault underwater before you start and you can't push off the wall going down or back, and you can only use like 4 strokes going each way or something like that
I was actually able to swim 25 meters submerged but i was trying to go as fast as I can.
But now i will use this method and try doing a 50. Wish me luck!
I can do the length of the pool. Best advice is don’t panic and have some determination as naturally you will want to quit. Don’t give in and calmly make it to the other side
First I was anle to swim 10m. Now after watching this video, I can swim 43m. Thanks alot.
Good job
Great channel. Very useful and a very relaxed voice.
i can swim about 15m but have not tried to do this yet
villehvo me either
I could swim 31 Metres without breathing
I usually get to 10 meters, breathe, and repeat. but if I'm actually concentrating and breathing correctly I can swim about 30-40 meters.
Thanks for this. I've come so close to making 50m on so many occasions.
Question please: I don't quite understand why going deeper consumes more oxygen. Why actually??
I dive 60m in a group of 3x20m. My pool is that short. But I NEVER touch the walls. So the hardest part is when I finish the second round, I have to bend the body (which I think makes a lot of bad to holding the breath) and then i always think "No, please, another 20m???"... But you know... you gotta keep calm... The 3x20 is not my everyday diving, but there I am...
Wonderful channel!!
the deeper you go the more pressure. Holding too much breath wont help swimming underwater since, lungs are holding air. I don't understand why going deep consumes more oxygen as well.... lol XD
Bro how do u even swim that's my question
EdgerinnJames Cuerdo not all people have the ability to swim very well
EdgerinnJames Cuerdo Practice
I can swim
By hands and by legs

After two years of trying I finally swam 50 meters underwater at Astoria pool today! Kicked off, all dolphin kicks for forty kicks, one two arm pull stroke and a few more dolphin kicks got me to the wall. I was psyched and elated and then my head and kidneys started hurting just a bit, probably from hypoxia. Was fine after relaxing poolside though. I'm 47, lifelong swimmer but this was a new accomplishment. 😀 This vid was more inspirational than instructive since I did dolphin kicks but it did help!
I did 40 meters before watching this video, I will try to do the 50 meters using ur tec. Thanks for ur videos
Try doing what we call count down to zero. It's a six repetition set. You start by allowing yourself five breaths. The next pass you get four. On the last you will have none. PLAN where you are going to breathe. If you need more breaths than allotted, take them, then retry that allotment and keep counting down if you can. Only do the six passes. You can't build your lung capacity in a day and you will be fatigued by then. This can be done surface swimming (which has even more tricks) or in a 25m pool or both. To do an underwater turn, place your favorite hand on the wall and allow your body to face sideways, push with your hand and pull in your knees to rotate your feet to the wall parallel to the bottom. This is a Tennessee turn, not a flip turn.
Safety tip: if you start to pee, surface IMMEDIATELY, you are about to pass out.
Coolness tip: Do NOT be the person passed out on the bottom of the pool. That guy's an idiot. Don't be the guy that pees in the pool either; he's nasty.
To be honest I will train harder. I have a total goal on 100 meters before. Just when I ended that training, for god know what. I ended up swimming 46 meters in total, this also in pool where there where 25 meters lines. So I had to turn to swim back again. If I would not had been the need of turning, well the half goal was made. Christian Wedoy, I like your videos. Keep on whit your work.
I was able to swim only 10 to 15 meters bit after seeing this I am able to swim 40 to 50 meter now thank you
"don't go deep, uses more O2" continues to dive to the bottom;.....hmmmm
One of these days, I have got to bring a tape measure. I know it's pretty large, but the local quarry has no information on exactly how big it is (width or length), but I know I can swim all the way across the width, and about 3/4 of the way across the length. Usually I'm stuck in tiny backyard pools, so they're rarely larger than 12 feet (3.6 meters) in length. Turning takes up too much energy so I can't really say for sure, but I've been swimming since before I could walk so that could be the reason I can get so far at the quarry.
I do a 25 meter underwater swim at present. Will definitely share after trying these techniques..
Gracias a tus videos, hoy puedo sumergirme hasta 9 metros (sé que nos es mucho pero hace 4 meses no podía ni nadar) y resisto hasta 90 segundos bajo el agua. ¡Gracias!
I can do 50 meters, I once tried 75 metres but I kinda blacked out. I did make it tho :P
Bogy 1 Kinoby yeah it's possible you just gotta haul ass
i can do 3,000,000 i just drown and fall 3 mil meters down into the core
no worries I only drowned a little bit
If you have blacked out then you were struggling or falling into unconsciousness. DNF should only be attempted in shallow pools.
A. R . Yes he did, his ghost is typing his comment
Christian wedoy i love this video i want to be a navy seal when i grow up. And i know that they got to do this so thanks for the heads up
the handstand on water is a little bit more harder than real life because when u try to get ur legs up the water gets u
25 is to 40. Im a swimmer and tbh this helped tremendously.
I created another swimming tech, push with ur hands but on the other way under your chest and belly, doesnt slow you and makes u much faster
I used to swim 20-30 metres.
Now j can swim 40-45 metres!
Thanks!
nice work you made me swim better
Before this video i was able to swim 15 meters underwater maximum (Im male 14) Now im able to swim 25 to maximum 30 meters :D thanks alot.
Great primer on how to do this. Question: Do you find that bigger guys can last less time underwater? More body mass = more/faster oxygen consumption?
+Epi Ren if you see David Blaine's TED talk he said he had too loose some kg before he could attempt the world record.
I used to be able to swim 75meters underwater with no fins, I took 5 deep breaths and I did as you did in the video except I did was my teachers told me was called the dolphin swim.
maybe you can keep your nose to the bottom to be more streamline, also when you move your hands from back to forward, try to do it as close to your body so you spend less energy
Im able to go one way across the legth you go cuz i practice every day
Hi Christian! 2 years after... you hopefully know that this is a bad technique to go underwater, right?! You actually don't do the arm-stroke and the frog-kick at the same time because you loose a lot of energy here in the video... when you first dive into the water and your first gliding-phase nearly ends you do the first arm-stroke and next time you put your arms in front of your body but make the frog-kick first and then do the arm-stroke. What you do here is working against your gliding-phase from the frog-kick... if you can do 50m with your "technique" shown here you're propably able to do at least 75m which isn't a bad number for DNF-Pooldiving! ;)
Hi Christian.. when I put my head underwater..how to be comfortable with nose/bubbles (stopping water from getting In) without any device/hand.
33m to 48m great video!
I,ll try this today in my swimming practice.. Yesterday ,we did a race( how far we can go underwater) I reached 35 m.I came second..today,I'm going to come FIRST,**sorry for the bad English. .. I'm from Greece
I wish i can swim that deep that looks so so fun i hope one day i can swim like you.😁🌷i like this video me and my family would like to swim like you your amazing at swimming,i can swim but not as good as you see ya, bye👋🐝🌹
I'm a swimmer, not a diver - so please take this as a sincere question and not a criticism - why do you hold your ankles in a 90-degree position like that? You'd have less drag and glide more if you point your toes. Is there a reason you use this position for long distance underwater? Again, sincere question here. :)
2x 33.33 meters pool with underwater turn at the other end. last 10 meters though.. i was with the body on the water but still face down.
That's an huge diving deep end. I never saw any deepend that big.
Wedoy some lakes r cold some are warm great video
+Master Ob Thanks :)
It helps to point your toes b/c less friction in water
I need help with staying neutral in my pool i was doing a dive and i needed help to stay down and not float up
did 40m today without much of effort and struggle
started swimmin in pool year and a half ago
Vova3iLvova good job.
your swim trunks look a little bit baggie perhaps not the speedo kind and you should be wearing a cap so it will be better and can you breath with those googles? they look like you could
Awesome video man, I seriously mean it
Thanks. I'm glad you like it.
Thx A Lot !! I can stay more underwater i subbed and liked the vid
This is good for people who have to take swim tests for certain careers
watching the guy swimming is kinda relaxing
Great tips thanks a lot I liked and subscribed
is the key to this having as little mass as possible? I really like swimming but I know I'm not built to be in the water and burn a ton of oxygen.
This was NP for me during the PAST.... really you just have to swim your WHOLE LIFE lol ;D
When I trained to freedive (at 13-14) I could do 50m (but it was a bit of a cheat as it was 25m pool and you could do a really god roll and take off again against the wall). But it was really strange as it was soo hard to do more then 50m. First 25 easy, then you need to push a bit but psychologically as you see the wall my brain just started to yes there is the finish line. I could not push myself more... really strange, I guess if it was a 50m pool I would have done longer underwater...
It definitely has psychological component.
Am I right that swimming under 1 minute need no supervision and is safe of blackouts? Read this in some regulations in the past.
I like your Videos :)
Amazing tips!
I can swim for 5 min and about 90 meters every day I used to go swimming so I am the best and fastest at swimming under water
I swam 8 Metres Accross a pool, I was so scared at first, now I’m brave
how long should you be able to hold your breathe for before practicing this?
Great video
# هاشتاغ _حكي thanks
What about flip turns when you attempt a 50? And should you be blowing bubbles out of your mouth at a slow and controlled rate during the 50?
BEFORE: 84 meter
AFTER: 87meter
wow an amazing difference
thank you because this weekend I go maybe swimming😎
