Oxygen conserving mitochondrial adaptations in the skeletal muscles of breath hold divers.

Oxygen conserving mitochondrial adaptations in the skeletal muscles of breath hold divers.

BACKGROUND:The performance of elite breath hold divers (BHD) includes static breath hold for more than 11 minutes, swimming as far as 300 m, or going below 250 m in depth, all on a single breath of air.
