What does /fit/ think of Wim Hof? He allegedly has full cont

>>40098038

Complete nonsense, you fucking retard.

>>40098090
Did you watch the video? He does it in front of a live audience.

>>40098038
Most of the stuff he sais is legit and has been proven scientifically, although exactly what is happening inside of him, besides the whole hyperventilation deal is still unclear - he's a mutant in some ways, but everyone can benefit from learning the technique. The only thing that sorta sucks about him is the fact that he makes some pretty bombastic claims for the sake of marketing his technique, giving people in advanced stages of cancer false hopes, even if he's sincere in his belief that he can cure them, is not backed up by science and therefore bullshit. Bottom line: you can learn the basics without paying a dime, there's no reason not to try, the benefits are there, even if you don't do crazy stunts. Btw, until proven otherwise, that calorie stuff is probably crap, but learning to breathe better and doing breathing exercises might help you metabolize your food better, providing you with more energy.

I haven't heard his claims he can cure cancer. Thanks for the input.

>>40098183
Yeah, luckily it's not one of the main selling points, but if you read up on it, you'll quickly discover that his critics usually attack this aspect. Again, it really doesn't take anything away from the technique.

>>40098183
It's reduce risk of cancer not cure it ya retard

does he actually control his temperature, or just how his body reacts to changes in temperature? one demonstrates incredible mental fortitude, the other likely isn't possible.

>It is thought from current studies that by consciously hyperventilating Wim can increase his heart rate, adrenalin levels and blood alkalinity. Wim is also believed to possess much higher levels of brown adipose tissue which aid in cold resistance.

>taking an ice bath in public means you control your body temp
>it's amazing

this is b8

sage

He doesn't control his body temperature. He gets acclimated. The whole thing he's doing is heavy breathing to open blood vessels and acclimation

>>40098542
You try staying in an icebath for 2 hours and see how it works out for you champ, if he wasn't able to control his body temperature please explain how he would be able to do this.

>>40098993
you get used to the water in like 5 minutes retard

>>40098993
If >>40098511 this Anon is right, he has a natural edge over normal humans in heat generation because of his brown adipose tissue.
