Science has now proved that the legendary Wim Hof Method of breath
control and cold-training can dramatically enhance energy levels,
improve circulation, reduce stress, boost the immune system, strengthen
the body and successfully combat many diseases. While Wim Hof himself
has run marathons in -30 C in shorts, swum hundreds of meters under the
ice, sat in a tank of ice for 90 minutes without his core temperature
changing and boosted his metabolism by over 300%, The Way of The Iceman
documents how anyone can use Wim’s methods to transform their health and
strength, quickly and safely.
“After teaching specialized breathing
techniques to SEALs for years, helping them focus, stay warm in the cold
ocean and get centered in combat, I can attest to the authenticity and
power of Wim Hof’s methods. Wim Hof is providing a great service with
his new book The Way of The Iceman by bringing breath training and
simple, powerful health practices into mainstream consciousness.”–MARK
DIVINE, US Navy SEAL (ret), founder SEALFIT, bestselling author of
Unbeatable Mind and Way of the SEAL
“Wim Hof’s teachings show us
how to recalibrate our bodies in a way that recognizes the extremes of
our natural environment as teachers to be celebrated and consulted,
rather than enemies to be insulated against. Wim’s deepest insights
resonate with our hunter-gatherer ancestors, who understood the wisdom
of adapting to the natural world rather than trying to dominate and
control it.”–CHRISTOPHER RYAN, PhD., New York Times bestselling author
of Sex at Dawn
”I am continuously searching for ways to expand
my mind, body and spirit—Wim Hof and The Way of The Iceman have done
just that! He shows us that human potential is limitless and we are ALL
capable of anything we set our minds to.”
–LEWIS HOWES, New York Times bestselling author of The School of Greatness
“What
fascinates me most about Wim Hof’s method is the potential application
for athletes…the science in this book shows that we can all amplify
our recovery, maximize our pain tolerance, massively jack up energy
levels and even learn to control inflammation…and it can be done
without resorting to toxic drugs. In fact, the system outlined in this
manual might just be the key to producing a generation of enhanced but
drug-free athletes.”–PAUL “COACH” WADE, author of Convict
Conditioning
“With The Way of The Iceman, Wim Hof has given a
profound gift to public health. The science is solid and the results
actual and measureable. Through years of commitment and
self-experimentation, Wim has empirically figured out how to exert
significant control over the autonomic nervous system, a feat once
thought impossible. His method has held up to scrutiny under the
dispassionate lens of science, expanding our knowledge of what is
possible with dedicated training in what is now known as the Wim Hof
Method.
Deceptively simple, and incredibly powerful, The Way of
the Iceman gives you not only the scientific framework, but actionable
steps you can implement to take back control over your high-jacked
brain, increase resilience from illness, and start healing yourself from
the inside out. The Wim Hof Method has become a cornerstone in my
personal daily wellness plan, and as a public health physician, I cannot
recommend it highly enough.”–Dr. CHRIS HARDY, D.O. MPH, CSCS, Public
Health Physician, Integrative Medicine Specialist
“The Way of The Iceman is one of only two books in my life that I have read cover to cover the first time I put my hands on it. This book is the missing link for most of us: the discussion of breathing is so simple, yet so doable; coaches and athletes will understand a newer and simpler means of recovery. The method is so simple, yet so elegant. It’s marvelous and I think you will apply the techniques immediately.”–DANIEL JOHN, author of Never Let Go.
