This is the breathup technique I used to break the 4 minute barrier. I was just over three minutes and then tried this and added a additonal 1:15 to my personal best.

I always used to start with a really short one, get comfortable and work up. For ages I used this schedule
2 mins breath
1 min hold
2 mins breath
2 min hold
2 mins breath
3 mins hold
3 mins breath
4+ mins hold
I got a bit bored of how long that took and now find I can easily start on a 2 minute or even 2 1/2 minute hold but still don't get any longer on the last one
