In his free time, Ionio Aguirre de Carcer enjoys working out and scuba diving.

In scuba diving, specific breathing techniques are beneficial for reducing air consumption and enhancing a diver's control over breathing patterns. Breathing is so vital in scuba diving that newcomers are instructed never to hold their breath, because it might affect air consumption, among other things. These are some techniques new divers should learn.

Diaphragmatic Breathing
Typically, people breathe with their chest muscles, which results in shallow breath. For divers, it's recommended that they use the diaphragm to bring air to the bottom third of the lungs. This technique saves air in the tanks, since less air is necessary to deliver oxygen to the cells while diving. It also has the added benefit of decreasing the heartbeat and inducing relaxation.

Improving Buoyancy
Another benefit of reducing air usage, buoyancy lowers CO2 levels in the body by allowing the diver to move more better while underwater. This will help improve air consumption.

Efficient Propulsion
Propulsion consumes the most energy while diving, since it uses the most muscle groups. Improving propulsion efficiency will enhance overall performance and decrease the energy expended, lowering CO2 levels and improving air control.

Although it isn't well-known as a diving destination, Spain does offer great scuba diving spots that are easy to reach and often accessible year-round. The Spanish coast is home to both warm-water and cold-water dive sites with great marine life and features to explore.

Scuba dives of all experience levels can find plenty of great destinations to visit near Barcelona. One of the top spots is Palamos in nearby Costa Brava, which is home to a tugboat wreck that supports a population of prawns and lobster, as well as conger and moray eels and other marine life.

There are also great diving locations right off Barcelona's coast. The waters off Nova Icaria Beach in the center of the city provide a peaceful diving experience, and diving centers such as Buceo Hispania offer great beginner dive trips at Barcelona's Port Olimpic.

Regardless of where you go, you can expect good visibility and mild currents when diving near Barcelona. Some of the best times to visit are between January and August, but you may want to plan your diving trip earlier in the year (between January and May) when the city sees fewer visitors.

To become a pilot in the United States, there is a set process that a person must follow. All applicants must be at least 17 years of age and have a working knowledge of spoken and written English. There are several ways to receive the needed aviation medical and student pilot certificates, but most commonly, they are given by the aviation medical examiner's office.

Th next step is to register for a form of instruction or flight school. The applicant must search their local area and find the right choice for them. Typically, the student must pass the written exam from the Federal Aviation Administration before getting hands-on experience on the plane. Once the test has been passed, it is time to fly with an instructor and solo.

When a student has put in 20 hours with an instructor, 10 hours solo, and at least 40 hours total, they can take the FAA practical exam. This exam can last between two and six hours, and it will consist of both flying elements and a verbal exam.
