Beneficial role of exercise on SCUBA diving.

Exercising before, during or after diving is proscribed due to the belief that this would increase the incidence of decompression sickness. Our findings show that carefully selected exercise performed in a timely fashion before the dive or during decompression will reduce the number of venous gas bubbles formed. Exercise after diving did not increase the number of bubbles. Nitric oxide seems to play a protective role.
