The Fixed Interval Pyramid Hypercapnic (FIPH) Table is one of my absolute favourite base training tools in freedive pool training. This pool-based exercise is best done in a 25m pool â no suit, no weights, no nose clip â just you, the water, and your breath. All you need is a 25m pool, a pair of swimmers, a stopwatch, and goggles.
Itâs been a game-changer in my own journey. I first learned this method from William Trubridge, and it became a key part of my preparation for the Guinness World Record.
In this video, I walk you through the FIPH table: how it works, how to set it up, and how to use it to build serious freediving strength â both physically and mentally.
Why train with the FIPH Table?
âïž Improve your hypercapnic tolerance
âïž Build lactate tolerance
âïž Sharpen your technique and streamlining
âïž Boost stroke-specific power
âïž Increase overall fitness and mental control
The structure of this table challenges you by reducing the rest time between laps, peaking mid-table, and easing off toward the end. Dive faster, and you earn more rest (but more COâ too!). Itâs all about finding your sweet spot between effort, form, and recovery.
If you find this exercise difficult, it may be because:
â You have too much air in your lungs
â Youâre not used to doing NO FINS bare â without the aid of suit or weights
â Your technique isnât strong enough to sustain the level of effort required to complete the table
If thatâs the case, check out my NO FINS, NO WORRIES course â designed to help you overcome all of these challenges and literally make you fly underwater.
