Attempt swimming underwater at the local pool -swimming "under the water" several feet , i.e. holding your breath for extended periods of time will improve the ability of the body to use oxygen. The benefits apparently involve not only improved lung function, but also the blood changes its ability to capture, store, and transport oxygen. DON't push it though - the standard crawl. walk, run scenario - try it in little bits Shallow water blackout is a loss of consciousness caused by cerebral hypoxia towards the end of a breath-hold dive in water typically shallower than five metres (16 feet), when the swimmer does not necessarily experience an urgent need to breathe and has no other obvious medical condition that might have caused it. Divers are extending their dive by closing down the body's natural breathing mechanism, NOT by increasing oxygen load. Hyperventilation, or over-breathing, is often used by divers in the mistaken belief that this will increase oxygen (O2) saturation. Victims drown quietly underwater without alerting anyone to the fact that there is a problem and are typically found on the bottom of the pool http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shallow_water_blackout PLEASE don't do the hyperventilating stuff...it does no good. Normal breaths and go under water for a bit to submerge the body. Try not to concentrate on the time or distance spent underwater. When you need a breath of air, return to the surface. Your lungs and body will improve just like in any other resistance exercise.
