I have read that this happened to people and there was also a warning in the description for week 6 but I was sure it would not happen to me.
Boy, was I wrong....
I did not pass out completely, but I had to sit down under the shower and my world turned black for a couple of seconds.
I did not have this problem yesterday and I am a little uncertain how to proceed and will read up about this a bit more and probably go on with more caution or only in the ice bath since normally I am not alone there.
I did take the shower before my breathing rounds and I do not feel like doing them at the moment, so no times today.
For new readers I want to explain what I am actually doing here: The Wim Hof Method consists of 3 pillars
breathing : you breathe in very deeply and exhale. But you dont exhale all the air so you kind of "charge" yourself. You do 30-40 breathe cycles and then exhale all the air out in your lunge and withhold your breath as long as possible.
cold exposure: you start taking showers or jump into an ice bath and the lenght is increasing as you progress through the course
some physical excercise : mostly some Yoga but also push-ups. What is special about the push-ups is, that you do one breahting round before them and also exhale, so you do the push ups with an empty lung.
The pictures usually show Wim Hof himself.
