I recently went on a three day diving trip with 2-3 dives per day. Most dives were around the 20 meter mark maximum depth, one dive went down to 40 meters. We observed conservative decompression times and usually went up on a slow rise. I felt well after all dives, no complications.
The day after I came back home I went for my usual 5km jogging round in the evening. It was a not too hot day and I felt encouraged to run a little bit harder. The last 400m of my run I usually walk at fast pace to slow down again (heart beat dropping from ~150 to 120), still it normally takes me another 10 - 15 minutes at home until my heartbeat is down to around 100. I'm a 57yo male, have done variable sports all my life, but have been a regular smoker until about a year ago.
Now this time round, after the diving trip I experienced a significantly shorter recovery period, mainly by catching my breath uch faster and by the time I was back home my breathing rate was almost back to normal and my heart beat was at 112.
I went for my usual jog again the next day and same thing, a much faster recovery.
Question is of course if this could somehow be connected with the diving, which was quite extensive and also quite deep in one instance? Today it's just too hot and humid here in Saudi Arabia so I am skipping the jogging and will do some indoor core exercises.
