After six days of doing the Wim Hof method, I wanted to put together a vlog of my experience. A couple days ago, I felt like I was coming down with a cold, so yesterday I didn't do the pushups or the cold shower. Surprisingly, doing the breathing made me feel a lot better. Today I feel great.
This is a 12 minute video update of my week, including some pushups, stretches and the headstand (sorry, no cold shower footage ;-).
Here's a great animation I found giving an overview of the various things which happen to your body while doing the Wim Hof method.
One of the articles I've enjoyed most on Wim Hof (I've read many, include all the comments in the reddit AMA he did) is from The Bro Scientist: Wim Hof Breathing Technique And Method: Are They Legit? A Scientific Critical Review.
Have you ever done anything like this? What are your thoughts on the science behind it? Is this something you want to try?
Let me know in the comments.
