- Freediving Equalisation can be a mystery. I've always wondered what actually happens when I equalise on my dives and for the first time ever I get to see what is moving in my mouth and how it's moving! I have learnt so much about my own equalisation from studying these videos and I hope they help you too!

This is a historical event for entire freediving community. Thank you so much for such GREAT WORK!!!!!
contractions on MRI might be cool
that would be awesome to capture!
Thank you Adam.
What you've done is absolutely giving positive effect. Not only for freediver families, but also for everyone who loves playing with the water.
Once again. Thank you
Thank you so much! It's honestly such a honour to just contribute to freediving 😊
to watch over and over again, really interesting and helpful for us that are trying to move from Frenzel to handsfree 🤓
Thanks! This is one of the best thing to the science of diving
Thank you Jeferson! That is quite the compliment
Most valuable freediving content on CZcams. Thanks Adam. I'm definitly supporting you on Patreon.
Thanks so so much! And I really appreciate the support 😊 see you on Patreon!
Adam, thanks a lot for your input in freediving education and development, your optimistic way of doing this and in general your positive approach to life! Be happy and energized and enjoy every single day!
packing air to the lungs on mri would be super cool
100% I'm doing that next time!
I haven't cared about human anatomy/science in a while (fish are my passion lol).... But this was very awesome. Thank you for going through all the time and effort to break down the anatomy and explain it all in detail.
I'm so glad your channel exists!
You did it man! This is so cool and very clear and understandable for anyone. It's amazing seeing what is literally going on in there. Thanks for all the awesome you put out!
thanks so much bro! I'm so stoked with how this turned out :) Hopefully it helps
Amazing stuff! These videos will help us understand what you're talking about when you discuss equalization. I'll need to watch the video a few more times to fully understand it, but thank you so much for doing this!!!
So so welcome :) I hope it helps :)
I really appreciate all you do to further this sport!! Cheers from Canada
Thanks so much Buddy :) I love doing it
Wow this MRI video is actually creepy but valuable and so helpful for me having difficulties with equalisation! Thank you so so much! Support from Korea!
hahahah the creepiest part is seeing my own brain haha I hope the video helps :)
After watching this, it helped me out a lot. A hard time equalizing, but I learned how to equalize. Much better to tell my instructor and this video, so huge shout out to all the supporters who help me equalize. In this process on these videos, these videos are very helpful. Keep doing what you're doing.
This is AMAZING! Very helpful!
Thank you very much Adam. That was actually a very good idea to show how everything looks like and how it works while you equalize or suck up air. A scan like that clarifies many things.
Thanks buddy :) I'm so happy! It has clarified a lot for me too :)
Very cool Adam. I've been following you for about a year and can't wait to take my first courses. Thanks to you and your wife for putting all of this together.
Thanks James :) You're so so welcome! Let me know how the course goes :)
So cool!!! Thx for sharing and for the efforts you made to make this possible!!
so so welcome :) I really hope it helps our understanding of EQ develop further :)
Super cool to see & very interesting, thanks adam!
Thank you Adam!
Excellent work Adam!
Thank you!!! :)
i always recommand this video to all person who start or want to imprive Equalization, you are the best teaching about freediving.
Thanks Mohammed! :)
Hey Adam! I am new to this channel and loving your videos so far! Total beginner here.
This episode made me think you should have a documentary on netflix!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing Frenzel videos. Amazing education
Great work done! Thank you!!
Thank you! :) I'm so happy with how it turned out
Outstanding Adam !! Thank you for sharing, you are a nice human ; )
So so Welcome :) I hope it's helpful :)
Amazing, i've already see some IRM like yours, But not all techniques particulary mouthfill. I appreciate your wave of enthousiam about freedive
Thanks Flo :) I really did enjoy doing this!
Awesome ! Big thank you for your contribution to the freedivers comunity !
Thank you Romain :) I hope it help take our knowledge further
Adam you're a legend, keep it up.
Thank you! Will do :)
Thank ufor this video Adam! Now i understand equalization.
You're absolutely welcome!!!
Thank you sir! I've learn a lot.
Wow this is so interesting! Thank you for sharing!
So so welcome :)
Amazing, thanks for sharing!
So so welcome!
Wow how cool was that!! Keep up the good work bro 😊
thanks Bru :)
great! thanks for sharing this
You're so welcome :) glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video. Thank you
thank you! So happy with how it turned out
Super cool and helpful!
Thank you!
Definitely a great video! I would like to see some comparisons using other freedivers. To see if everyone has similar muscle control and positioning of each section of the airway. Have a couple different freedivers, men and women perform the same example you just did.
Cheers
absolutely! It would be fantastic to see other freedivers in there
What a beautiful video!!! Such great idea, Adam. Now I know I am doing H frenzel the right way. It just doesn't feel like strong enough because I keep feeling the need to equalize even by staying at a steady depth. It's all a matter of practice, I guess. I hope.
Thanks Noah! It's all just practice :) it will improve for sure
Grandios idea!
thanks Florian!
A very helpful video. Kudos!
thank you! :) so happy with it
Adam Freediver greetings coming from the Philippines!
That was actually very interesting,
Thanks :)
Very cool video. I would be great to add a scan of the eustachian tube as well!
I'll be doing that next time I go there :)
So cool!
Thanks Kathy!!!! :)
Very cool!
thanks !!!!
thank you~
So welcome :)
If we could, I'd get to use that on the water testing. How our lungs look while it is getting compress smaller from the pressure of the water that would have been very nice to see how your lungs look wild on the water. 4:35
I'm able to put my tongue behind the soft pallet.
Yogis use the technique as some kind of lock for static apnea. It's scary because you can have the feeling that it disappears there and you wont be able to get it back
That will be nice if you showed the movement of air toward the ears drums and how they equalized. It can be seen in every type of equalization how the air pushes ear drums. It’s cool. Thanks for the video champ.
Absolute pleasure :) I'll definitely be doing that on the next one
I also thought the base of the tongue did more job but from the footage at around 8 min it seems that it still does big job. My guess is that as it contracts, it's pulling up whole larynx
Activation an opening of E-Tube and clean VS sticky E-tube too see if it is the lip in front of the Etub or the Etube that get stuck. To get it to stick clean your nose with water and get it up to the opening of the E-tube... How "klicking motion" of soft pallet moves the E-Tube and cleans the water or mucus away..
Just a suggestion for future videos.
-Impact on health ( good or bad ) in the practice of regular freediving and apnea.
-Can freediving be still practiced when we get older?
-Can freediving be still practiced when we get older? - munchies.vice.com/en_us/article/pgvp4m/meet-the-ama-women-of-japan-who-freedive-for-seafood-through-their-seventies
Of course it can be practiced when we get older :D
-Impact on health ( good or bad ) in the practice of regular freediving and apnea. - Freediving has plenty of good effects on our bodys.. I think Adam would need to make a 24H video about it :D
Very interesting video. I would love to see the same thing for HandFree, to be able to understand which muscles are involved around eustachian tube in this technique.
Hey Florian. I had MRI videos made of no hands. I have that one on my Patreon page 😊
This is real research👌
I'm a scientist now ;)
The eustachian tube is where most of the drama is for me, at least until watching your videos and learning to finally EQ! I think this would be difficult to video MRI because the tubes are so small and not parallel to a hemisphere (or probably straight enough) to capture in a single video image.
we can definitely capture the E tube opening and closing with this particular MRI machine. I'll be doing it next time i go :)
That will be very interesting!
Really interesting insights :) Do do plan to publish any videos with frontal, axial and sagittal planes combined?
That would be awesome to.see what happens inside the ears
Hey! Cool video as always Adam. I have been freediving for 13 days, and not once i was able to equalize. I could not get any deepter than maybe 4 meters. I tried everything, i even got a training around 20 minutes, but i was not able to go deeper.
I'm am stuck in the same place you are - I can't equalize despite lots of training and practice. Have you had any success??
It's really funny... I took photos for a company several weeks ago. In fact I took many photos from MRT's (that's how they named here in Germany) in the last years and I also know that machine in specific and the last place I visited was a scientific medical practice and they also told me that there are several medical studies you can join and you get the pictures for free. The thing is... most (if not all) scientific places are obliged to tell you what they maybe found in your body during the MRT-sessions besides the study... but for this topic you may find some professors to work with. Thanks for sharing Adam! I think about canceling my NETFLIX this month since I have a rule for what I spend for monthly stuff in the internet... so I will change from Netflix to your Patreon... very soon! ;D
hahahaha I hope they don't find anything bad in your body then! That's awesome :) you should get some equalisation images of yourself :) I hope to see you on Patreon soon :)
Hi Adam first of all I would like to thank you for all the content you are putting out there :)
... I need some advice ... Since always I had a hard time equalizing but the last days have been worse...
I'm using frenzel and it's just really hard... I use a lot of energy to pop the ears sometimes so hard that it pushes air out my eye sockets - and it's supposed to be a easy thing.. I heard of people just moving their jaw to equalize ... no way I could do this...
Any advice or experience would be highly appreciated.
Thank you so much - greetings from the Azores 🎈
Very intresting i never missed your video...i am follow you in instagram
Thanks so much Free Bird :) good to see you here and there :)
This is absolutely brilliant. Haven’t checked Patrion but did you do the elusive Hands Free?
Thanks David :) I do have the video of me doing hands free on my Patreon :)
awesome
thanks!
Amazing! Thank you Adam! I guess it was not possible to film yourself inside the RMI? It would have been great to see both views in the same time...
What do you mean by RMI???
@@AdamFreediver : MRI ! 😄
Very intersting for a beginner like me to have the opportunity to see what's going on inside, good stuff ty for doing it! 😊
Where did you move to?
Thanks buddy :) So happy it's helpful :) We moved to Gorokan, a little suburb nearby
Hi Adam I follow you from Italy. what are the exercises to be able to move the back of the tongue in this way. thanks
it'll be really cool if do a simulation of diving . the lung shrink, and the Diaphragm rise up
that would be epic! I just don't know if I can get into a decompression chamber with an MRI
@@AdamFreediver maybe first is a simple version , just keep breathe out and reverse packing till no air in lung will be easier to complete :)
Don't try surgery :) :) You are a badass! Thank you mate.
haha I draw the line at being cut open haha
NB if this is a single voxel plain DICOMM then your tongue/palette could be touching elsewhere in the 3D video.
definitely. It's the centre of my mouth and with the way the anatomy is shaped it isn't likely to see much variation from these positions but you're 100% right
very noice
Nooice :)
yEs
Come down to Unimelb, we'll give you free training to learn how to use 3DSlicer which is what you need to do the DICOMM analysis :)
And Erin, of course.
that would be epic!!! send me a message on facebook or email me adam.thomas.stern@gmail.com and we can sort it out
@@AdamFreediver chat further in Killsby
Hi Adam. May I subtitle this video with Traditional Chinese in order to sure with my friends?
for sure you can, as long as when you post it you include links to the origional video and my Patreon :)
Adam Freediver thanks!
Did you do no hands EQ?
I certainly did! That video is on my Patreon though 😊
Ahaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Why don't you start collaborating with researchers on the physiological details of equalization? I bet there'd be enough material for a peer-reviewed publication accumulating quite quickly! Plus, if the right people are convinced, financial resources (purely for conducting the project) are comparably easy to come by and there'd be no need to finance this fancy imagery out of your own pocket! I bet we could find you someone here in Zurich!
And we would be waiting for years for an abstract of a written report, not seeing the video, not hearing of a expert level freediver of what he actually learned of it. Maybe it's better to have cooperation where Adam get's to show the data and talk about it right away, whilst the researcher spends more time exploring the minutia. But who pays, who owns the data... So I prefer we pay.
These two ways of doing it not necessarily exclude each other. Nothing speaks against showing results before peer-reviewed publication - in fact, there's a huge movement in the scientific community to change this old paradigm and get the stuff out there as soon as possible. This fosters collaboration, feedback and public engagement!
I will be collaborating with the researchers at the facility :) it will definitely be a while before we can release anything though haha
Would I learn hands free equalization if I did patreon? 😁
I'd say you have a good chance, we can go through the exercises there for it and you can see all the other equalization videos and the MRI video of hands free 😊
Adam Freediver that’s very enticing 😁
You say it's a very specific MRI. What kind of MRI is it?
It was an MRI machine that was able to take rapid photos. Most aren't able to take photos fast enough to make a video out of the images
It's called Functional MRI. Used for cardiology etc. Can be done on pregnant women for fetus activity evaluation. By the way, there is a video on the web, where one of the MRI guy practicing sex with his wife for scientific purposes. Cool.
@@alexmarkev Thanks!
WICKED
yeah boi!!!
What should you do next? Not singing...
I thought you would love to hear me sing though
4th
You just missed out on the podium! :P
@@AdamFreediver Ha, funny guy ;) I actually had 3rd but when I refreshed "Federico" snaked me!
2nd
better than 3rd but not as good as 1st :P
