This week on THE SKINNY CONFIDENTIAL HIM & HER PODCAST…
( 0:55 ): Welcome back to TSC HIM & HER Show. #268: On this episode we are joined by “The Iceman”, Wim Hof! For those unfamiliar with Wim Hoff, he is a Dutch extreme athlete noted for his ability to withstand freezing temperatures. He has set Guinness world records for swimming under ice and prolonged full-body contact with ice, and still holds the record for a barefoot half-marathon on ice and snow. On today’s episode Wim discusses how to use the cold and breath work to boost our immune system, limit anxiety, and remove depression.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS WITH
( 3:46 ): Michael asks, “How the hell did you climb so high on Mount Everest and the top of Kilimanjaro with wearing nothing but shorts and shoes in ice cold temperatures?”
( 7:39 ): Michael says, “For those that are unfamiliar with the Wim Hof method, which I think has made a lot of these feats that you’ve accomplished possible, let’s talk a little bit about what the Wim Hof method and then we’ll get a little more granular with the details.”
( 13:14 ): Lauryn asks, “How long does it take you to set up your day with this method?”
( 15:53 ): Lauryn asks,“When you take the cold shower and you do it freezing cold for three minutes, can you turn it on hot after that, or do you recommend just getting out after the three minutes?”
( 16:50 ): Michael asks, “What was your childhood like? Where’d you grow up? And how’d you discover this obsession with the cold?”
( 25:52 ): Michael asks, “This exercise you said releases hormones; what else is it helping to release?”
( 29:20 ): Lauryn asks, “Do you think that a lot of people’s anxiety in quarantine right now is stemmed from not being able to get that deep breath in?”
( 45:34): Michael asks, “For people that are like oh I don’t know if I can get into the cold or I don’t know if I can get into a cold shower, and they’re not mentally tough yet, what would you tell those people? What are some tips to make you mentally strong?”
( 53:55 ): Lauryn says, “I want to ask you if you can walk our audience through 2 minutes of breath work right now?”
