Re: How fit are you?

I play competitive badminton three days a week for a minimum of two hours so assuming i play 4 matches of 15mins each i suppose I qualify for 180mins of training / exercise a week.

I had a full on heart check up last year including a cardio monitor which I wore for 24 hours and during badminton. After this and a 20min treadmill test I was told that I was disgustingly fit for a 42 year old fat git (1.8m 95kg) who smokes and drinks wayyyyy to much.

I am planning some serious 120m+ diving for next year and loosing weight and getting fitter is going to be part of my prep

At the moment I still plan to quit deep diving (50m+) and long deco (60min+) at age 45. At that time I might quit CCR as well and go back to OC but I haven't made my mind up yet. I struggle to justify the risk of CCR diving unless doing deep long dives.
