This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_002F_01C1C27A.4CAB2DD0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Peak vascular development does not even hit until about age 31. The older guys are usually better able to tolerate this stuff than the younger. However, I do not even consider that , since I am 50 and my dive partner is 32, and we have been doing this together since I was in my 30's and he was in his teens, and we both get the same results doing the same thing. The cold and tired part says the guy should skip the dive. There is no deco that alters any of that. Really, if one is out of shape or is not feeling well, diving is not the best thing to be doing. You can not make up for out of shape with deco, you can only do damage. -----Original Message----- From: Torbj�rn Hamran [mailto:thamran@ne*.no*] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 5:37 PM To: Techdiver@Aquanaut.Com Subject: Other deco factors Was: no reply, pls George Glad to see you are continuing this thread. You have described how the deco profile changes with depth and time. I am curious about other factors that might apply. Example: Take a certain dept/time (70m/30min) and compare the optimal deco profiles for these divers: Diver 1: 50 years old, average/good fitness, feeling cold and exhausted Diver 2: 30 years old, very good fitness, not feeling cold nor exhausted Otherwise assuming "controllable" factors to be ok (non smoking/well hydrated etc.) but you might have others.
