#Using the wim hof method while sick plus
i've been doing low carb, healthy fat for over a year and my systemic inflammation is very low/minimal - plus lost 15 lbs and 4 pants sizes. I feel like the WHM is really cleaning the blood stream.
i'm hitting up to 103% of my theoretical maximum heart rate, which at 72 years old is 148. My 30 minutes on the NordicTrack mellows me out for the day, and clears my cannabinoid receptors for the day of vaping. i do three cycles with about 30 seconds between. Now up to 70 seconds on the holding after last (30th) exhale - at which point i feel like i'm suffocating and then i take the inhale for last retention - about 40 to 60 seconds. Here are a few videos which I recommend watching, for anyone interested in trying the WHM: Cold Water Exposure (contrast shower starting and ending cold, or just a few minutes cold water )ġ0. 3-4 rounds of WH breathing (specific combination of hyperventilation and breath holding)ģ. There are courses you can take to learn the method from a certified instructor, but there is plenty of free information online, as well.ġ. The Wim Hof Method is a combination of three "pillars": Breathwork, Cold Exposure, & Commitment (patience, dedication, and focus) His ability to endure and embrace extreme cold have earned him the nickname "The Iceman". If you already know about the Wim Hof Method, feel free to share your experiences with it.įor those of you who are unaware of what the Wim Hof Method is, here is some information (be sure to watch all of the videos before trying the method, for safety reasons):
I made this thread, because I have been practicing the Wim Hof Method 12 days ago, every morning and almost every night, and have been feeling great, so I wanted to share the method with you guys, and hear some of your thoughts.
