Hi
I really mean when is the right time to exhale.
Should I slowly exhale while swimming or should I hold my breath until I need air exhale and then turn to inhale?
Thanks for helping out this newbie

"the oxygen you breathe in will help you immediately" Correction: the oxygen you breathe in has no immediate effect at a cellular level. Believe me, I have held my breath while using a pulse oxymeter and I was finished, with strong urge to breath and my saturation was still above 95%, which means that although I felt a strong urge to breathe my oxygen at a cellular level, in my circulating blood was still high.
