For me it's the waist, my first squeeze are my b*ll*cks. You can can bet I add the air after it's uncomfortable

As I descend I let it squeeze a bit, then air ab it of air and continue that until at final depth. For bouyancy I use mixture of suit and sometimes the BCD. I don't place more air than required, as I ascend I dump it bit by bit
