Do the results, measured by breath hold time, really matter that much?

Isn't it that the process, the doing of the breath work, is what actually matters and has benefits?

I like to think about it this way. I usually get to 1:30 only, occasionally more.

Good luck!

I think it does because breath hold is what increases CO2 and alkalizes the blood. That leads to anti-bacterial and anti-viral pH change.

Everything over 1 minute is good in my book. I was able to do 2, 2, 2.5, 3 before holidays with ease.

I also use it as a proxy measure for stress in the body. If you can't so 1 minute, it's either technique, practice, or ... you're too stressed.
