A Discovery Channel documentary featuring the sperm whale explained that its
deep diving ablility for long periods was due to the tremendous muscle mass
acting as an oxygen store.

Since humans share the "mammalian diving reflex", should this mean
bodybuilders make better freedivers than marathon runners?

Francisco "Pipin" Ferreras, a world-record freediver, is a stocky fellow.
