Very Fit means that you lose 1 FP every 2 seconds instead of every second (or every 10 seconds instead of 5 if drowning from a failed Swimming roll) after you run out of time. Either level means that you recover twice as fast once you do get air (1 FP/5 minutes of clean air); which also means you regain consciousness twice as soon. If you went without air for more than two minutes either level gives its bonus to the HT roll to avoid brain damage.
