Without any preparation or training, on average, about 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 minutes. My longest was about 4 minutes and 30 seconds. I've never done any breath hold training though. If I did I could probably get into the 6s or maybe beyond. Hard to say.

When I was around 18 some fellow students and I did such a test. I was able to reach 3 minutes inactive sitting on a chair, without cheating. Now, at 69 years of age, when I go swimming I always start with a full length underwater 20 to 25 meter distance, the latter being the length of the pool. I guess that must be about 1 minute swimming apnea.
Its hard to do so when thinking about it. But if it ever came down to needing to do so to survive then i can

So I think my best time was like 2 minutes… but that was a long time ago. I haven’t tried in a long time even.
When I was younger and into Scuba Diving and working as a lifeguard/swim instructor at the beach, I would practice all the time and got up to around 3 minutes or so.
These days likely 2 minutes.
I don't know. I haven't actually tried in a while.
Just over a minute I really need to give up smoking lol
If I'm underwater it's much longer than if I'm in a horsebarn.
Maybe 40 seconds. I don't feel like trying neither. 😂
