About Alexey Molchanov

Alexey Molchanov — 46-time freediving world champion, in a Molchanovs wetsuit

Alexey Molchanov is a 46-time world champion in freediving — the sport of diving to great depths on a single breath — and the head of Molchanovs, an international freediving education organization and equipment brand. A WHOOP ambassador known for his extraordinary athleticism, he has been featured in the documentary The Freediver (Paramount, 2024) and on 60 Minutes.

Alexey's athletic abilities are extraordinary, even by elite athletic standards. He has recorded heart rate variability (HRV) as high as 170 and can lower his heart rate to as little as 30 beats per minute while diving to depths exceeding 135 meters (440 feet) below sea level. These feats demand exceptional physical and mental resilience under extreme pressure. A key to his success is his ability to remain calm even when his body and mind are pushed to their limits.

From Friday, December 4 to Saturday, December 5, Alexey will be in New York to launch a freediving school and lead a series of masterclasses.
