Starting simple, today is all about getting used to your speargun and the gear, and target practice.

See You Underwater, and Happy Hunting
Nice. In Winter when the fish are asleep this is probably a good activity. It might also be a good time to get your weight right.
This is unreal, yet again!
Went out diving on New Year’s Day and used a speargun for the first time, managed to spear a nice size butterfish 🤤
Awesome, congrats!
*KEY POINTS*
0:14 _Holding the Rifle_
1. 0:19 - Hold like a pistol, not rifle. do NOT hold the barrel - hand will get caught in mono line. Don't keep close to your face unless you want a bruise + broken visor!
2. 0:56 Hold your speargun outstretched, with one hand. If supporting with second hand, put second hand on first hand.
1:23 _Target Practice_
After underwater target set up with weights at a distance of ~2m:
1. Breathe up, dive to sea floor. Prop yourself up on the sand/rock.
2. Relax, straighten your arm with speargun in dominant hand, look down barrel. Once relaxed and aligned with target, pull trigger.
3. 1:54 KEEP ARM STRAIGHT! Vital for accuracy.
4. Keep practicing. After practice, extend distance of underwater target to 4-6m.
5. Be sure to have float line + float attached to gun.
Hey mate, how do you slow your heart rate down without breathing? Ahaha. It’s a serious question
Possibly a slow controlled exhale?
There's no secret technique. It's all about how much oxygen your blood can carry. You get better at it by just holding your breath a lot. Don't try to do any breathing techniques as that is exactly how people get black outs and pass out.
How do you increase your bench press? You bench press.
