You are literally stretching out your lungs so that they can hold more air. The average human female has a capacity of four liters, and the average male six liters. Endurance training can increase those numbers, but only slightly. Lung packing, however, can add up to three liters to a person's lungs.One diver named Herbert Nitsch even has a reported 14-liter capacity.yclist Miguel Indurain has massive lungs for a non-diver (8 liters), and they were reportedly large enough to displace his stomach, which gave him a trademark paunch. Chances are you won't need to hold your breath for 20 minutes in your lifetime, or even 5 minutes.
1 The total lung capacity (TLC), about 6,000 mL, is the maximum amount of air that can fill the lungs (TLC = TV + IRV + ERV + RV).  The vital capacity (VC), about 4,800 mL, is the total amount of air that can be expired after fully inhaling (VC = TV + IRV + ERV = approximately 80 percent TLC). The value varies according to age and body size.
