Abstract

 The current research aims to study the effects of diving for different years on some dynamic respiratory functions of divers. The researchers used the descriptive (survey) approach. The researchers purposefully chose (30) persons divided into divers (n=20) and non-divers (n=10). Divers were subdivided into (5-6) years of diving experience (n=10) and (9-10) years of diving experience (n=10). Non-divers (n=10) are not involved in diving nor any other athletic activity. Results indicated statistically significant differences among the three groups of non-divers, divers (5-6 years) and divers (9-10 years) on dynamic respiratory measurements immediately after diving in favor of non-divers, indicating a negative effect of professional diving for long years on respiratory functions.
