This test proves nothing to no one except that someone knows how to swim
Which for diving is a good thing.
BTW a cardiac stress test can be done fairly inexpensively using a stair step, inexpensive heartrate monitor
and a watch to record recovery time as long as someone knowledgeable sets up the standards to measure.
Not exactly a full fledged stress test but a good enough measure of cardiac fitness for tech diving.
