I want to free dive so bad but I'm a heavier weighted dude so I float too easily and have to work to keep myself underwater. Working on losing weight so I can do that kind of stuff!

I'm also a bit heavy and I know the struggle. I use a lot of energy just do prevent popping back up like a cork. I've considered using a little bit of lead, but what I like about freediving is not having a bunch of belts and vests and other gear on me. So I'm currently also trying to lose weight.
