As a Finn, your simplification ignores the warnings we had. Don't jump straight to an icy lake from Sauna or you might get a heart attack or drown. Many people cool down a bit before jumping to ice water. And for some people, enough cooldown is walking in freezing temperatures from sauna to shore and end of the pier.

@TheMrAbsolute 3 года назад

Great video, but you have made a lot of mistakes that you could have just researched in about 3 minutes. Hrv is the measure between two successive beats of the heart, not the difference between rhr and he while exercising. Also, as many told you, you got the breathing, and the technique wrong. Please do more research when putting out videos, because it can affect people that wayhj and blindly belive it.

I'm blown away by how powerful Wim Hoff's method is and I feel so so much better since I started doing this. The cold showers are hard, but I start breathing rapidly to bring up my body temperature. But, very quickly I feel so much better. Less stressed psychologically for hours afterwards. And I've noticed my thinking is clearing up. Brain fog is less, breath is stronger, and I hurt less overall. Joints, muscles, and psychosocial pain is significantly less. I'm loving this therapy that costs Nothing and benefits the body.

This is one of the most helpful Wim Hof analyses I have ever seen. Why? 1) You are not "pro" or "con". I have seen a lot of people just "excited" for the method. I have seen people who were just plain skeptical. You are looking deeper. 2) You are doing careful evaluation. I have heard a lot of stories and a lot of cheerleading. But your evaluation explains a lot of why things work that no one else I have heard has pointed out. Thank you!

@sandersnoeren9683 2 года назад

@everythingisforever 3 года назад

I guess a lot of others have also pointed this out, but I'm compelled to add that you DO NOT fully exhale, you just let go of the diaphragm to equilibrium. This is a small but critical point of the Wim Hof method, which helps balance the PH of the body correctly.

@@VintageGentleman1947 correct. It's pretty simple really to describe. 30-40 deep inhales/relaxed exhales followed by a breath retention (without full lungs) followed by 10-15 second recovery breath where you breathe in fully and hold. Then back to the 30-40 breaths.

@gm2407 Год назад

I did the guided breathing exercise Wim has on youtube it was not clear not to fully exhale and the graphic isn't helpful with that either as it shrinks to where it was on empty. The most important thing he does say is appears later in the video he said if you need to breath than breath don't keep holding your breath. Don't force it. The ambiguity is dangerous if it needs to be stated before the guidance "we are going to inhale 30 times when you exhale just let the air go but do not fully exhale." Then it should be explicitally stated.

@frankneumann486 3 года назад

The dizziness and tingling comes from oxygen deprivation (Bohr effect). Your blood is saturated with oxygen, but the oxygen doesn't get into your muscles and tissue because the CO2 is missing. Once you hold your breath the CO2 builds back up (that's why you can hold your breath for so long after the hyperventilation breathing.

@Kakatawaga 3 года назад

Just clarifying. Specifically, isn’t the dizziness and tingling more to do with the respiratory alkalosis (high PH) due to the Carbon Dioxide deprivation? Rather than the oxygen deprivation? It’s been quite a while though since I studied human physiology.

@cr4zyb4sh3 3 года назад

@@Kakatawaga O2 and CO2 are in a constant balance. by heavy breathing out, you push the CO2 level to an extreme low (regarding concentration curve), while your O2 level is normal. BUT the bodys reflex for breathing is triggered by the CO2 concentration. Getting to this "alert level" in CO2 blood concentration from this extrem low you created in the first place takes a while. But while the CO2 builds back up, your O2 conc. is going down... and the increased timeperiod without oxygen intake leads to a critical low O2 saturation and this is the reason you get dizzy or even pass out.

Ive been doing the Wim Hof method on and off for a couple of years . it makes me feel so alive and well , within and mentally strong . Wim says to breath fully in but not fully out , he says just let the breath go , then fully in again and so on , for abut 40 to 90 + breaths , depending on your experience level , the last breath let it out and hold without air in your lungs , the longest i have held is 4 minutes but it takes a lot of practice and while holding strange feelings happen like being disconnected from reality its weird , Wim says you activates the pineal gland , So if your feeling depressed unhappy , lifeless , besides personally knowing the Lord ,the Wim Hof method will fix it , i vouch for it , Cold showers after the breathing exercises take it to a whole new level

I'm facing open heart bypass surgery soon and have been doing the 3 round Wim Hof breathing exercise. My coronary arteries are blocked to the point they can't use stents to open them up. So now I'm making a concerted effort to do this daily. My theory is by increasing the blood oxygen saturation it helps make up the deficit of the clogged arteries. I bought a pulse oximeter that shows the %O2 and the pulse rate. When doing the breath hold at the end of each round, I notice my 02% is 99-100% especially on the 1.5 minute hold. I'm also getting my lungs ready for general anesthesia and post op recovery. I really welcome any comments from health professionals on my approach. Cheers to all. Bob

I am not a health professional, but as you are facing open heart by-pass surgery soon i assume you have spoken to one recently.

I do not think seeking out stress is a good think in your condition. I urge to think twice and actively consult your doctor about this. This means calling them and discussing your ideas. Don't just wait for someone to reply on your comment you placed on a random youtube video to get this kind of advice. Just hope your hart is still beating to enable you to read this.

Wim Hof metod is great, it works just like excercise; intense stress during a short time. Excercise should also be short and intense, 5 min high intense interval training is much better than a 1h steady pace jog. Also cold showers are great, really gives you energy. Also Wim actually recommended 2-3 min cold shower for the health benefits, not 15 min. Training is good for health competing is not.

@flameace 3 года назад

It's not possible to get same benefits from high intense interval training as 1h jog. In low heart rate training you cause stretching effect to heart muscle. Higher heart rate just makes it stronger, but it's capacity doesn't get any bigger. There is nothing new in HIT or crossfit type trainining, such things has been tried out in 1950s, and studied thoroughly long ago. Don't bring any good results for sports. Of course you see great benefits if you do only two months study, which is it exactly how long you get benefits from high intensity training. Then it plateaus. 5 min training time is ok if training sucks like HIT does, but when training is fun, I would rather do it for 1 hour or more.

Nope. Nothing will give you similar effect. Fasting wont have you in altered states of consciousness and have you feeling every cell in body vibrating and achieving apoptosis in 10-20mins. Its delusional to compare it to other things.

@maxyeusebio 3 года назад

After 3 minutes and up (of full retention) you reach another level of consciousness.The mind is transcended and the upper bodies activate.The state is euphoric and you can reach it every time by practice.I think you can safely say that the longer you maintain your breath the more your consciousness awakes BUT it has to be done in perfect harmony,both the inhale and the exhale,not to be forced

When using the app you can choose how many breaths you want to do. I did 25 breaths rounds for about a year daily and now I’ve been doing 35 for almost a year. I do a a minimum of a two minute hold on my first round, by my fourth round I make it to over three minutes and have been able to make it to four minutes a few times. I challenge anyone to try grounding for ten to fifteen minutes and then do as many pushups as you can, you’ll be amazed by how many pushups you will be able to do.

@mrknowitall9778 3 года назад

Sten, i appreciate your videos and presentations very much. I was pleasantly surprised to see you cover Wim Hof breathing. I'm been practicing it for 2 years now. A couple of corrections. Wim, does not recommend exposing yourself to cold in a 'shocking' manner. Rather, to work your way into it. For instance, It took me a couple of months, but i started out gradually by turning my shower water temp from warm to cool to cold. Now I can walk into an ice cold sower and it is not a shocking experience. Secondly is the breathing. In your video you mention that with Wim Hof breathing, we are 'forcing' out. Not so. Actually, a deep breath is taken in from the stomach, but instead of pushing / forcing it out, you just let it naturally out. In fact, you do not try and push out the remaining air. And, while 3 rounds are good, it depends on the individual. I can get away with 2 rounds of breathing, or sometimes 4 rounds to go deep. Thank you for covering Wim. There is a lot of published science and it's great that you covered it.

As said before, when you do the Wim Hof method you don't fully breath out.

Two of my gurus in one video, excellent! The one thing I've always considered underemphasized by Wim is the fact that he has been on an OMAD diet for most of his life (although not keto at all, a vegetarian). Many who follow him do not realize just how much benefit Wim's diet brings him and believe that following his method alone will result in the same amazing health Wim has. In reality you need to do both, just like he does. I really wish Wim would be louder about his life long fasting and include it in general as part of his teachings, as in my opinion IF has helped him just as much to achieve his many world records as his method did. In that sense, Wim is also a Dr. Ekberg follower :-D ...and for myself, I follow both.

@chaz-brighter 3 года назад

This is interesting and helpful but not actually 100% accurate to the Wim Hof Method. The penny dropped for me when I realised there is no "blowing" out on the out breath, it's a let go. I was doing it wrong on my own for a couple of months until I got it. Just let it go, as Wim says. No blowing out at all. So actually the chest area doesn't cave in, but remains kind of firm and upright, with the belly distended, (which may relate to tumo breathing). This increases internal heat somehow, a whole area not explored in this video. Been cold showering for 10 months, after a warm shower to get the contrast, which is well explained here. Found that indeed, if the breath is practiced correctly, internal heat is increased, and found really cold showers to not feel cold at all after a minute or two. In fact, thought there was something wrong with the taps the other day, but measured the temp and it was 7.2C. In my experience there are many real benefits to cold showering - and you feel like a million dollars afterwards. That internal heating is something I'm exploring more, as it appears to be affecting my health overall too. Good luck everyone!

I felt nothing b4. Only going to start with the breathing, I was always lazy to do it. And you are right after a minute the water is not cold anymore, like swimming. Raises energy levels insanely, and we'll since cold showering I react differently to stressors, literally nothing gets my reaction.
