guys i have been racking my dives and have been diving almost every other week. have been experimenting with my breathing buoyancy, have been getting in shape and incorporated cardio/weights to my weekly regimen. in the last two months the weights i have been using have been getting less and less.
3mm wetsuit, warm tropical waters, al 80 tank. haclyon ss bp 6lbs
i started using 8 lbs excluding my lbs bp months ago, then dropped 2, then 2 then 2. now i just use the backplate for weight. have been using this for about 3 months but noticed after my DIR fundies a great improvement in overall buotancy and trim. but only recently have i noticed that bec of my healthy lifestyle and constant diving that i may be a little overweighted and have outgrown my ss bp. think its time to go aluminum and shed the 3lbs.
question is, what can i attribute this drop in weight to? is my buoyancy improving? am i more comfortable? dropping fat?? i want a scientific answer to my questions i am really curious. thanks.
