I read that strenuous exercise after diving increases your risk of DCS. This is something that worries me, seeing as I don't want to get bent, but I recently started exercising everyday but Sunday (decided I wasn't in as good of shape as I could be, and decided to do something about it):
Arms (strength training) on Monday
Bicycling (CV workout) on Tuesday
Back and chest (strength training) on Wednesday
Distance swimming (CV workout) on Thursday
Legs on Friday (strength training)
Up to an hour on a stair climber on Saturday (usually with a backpack with 30 lbs of weight in it on to simulate a Scott Pack)
How long do I need to stay topside before I can safely workout? I don't want to cause myself to develop DCS. Any input from the docs would be appreciated.
