My Cold Water Experiences w/ Wim Hof, Laird Hamilton, + Gabby Reece
Channel: PREP Athletics
Date: 2023-05-08

In this mini episode we discuss my experiences w/ cold water.  It started when I went to train w/ Laird Hamilton and Gabby Reece at their home in Malibu.  From here I was hooked.  I bought a chest freezer for my home in DC and now where I live in Colorado I take advantage of the frigid mountain streams.  In February 2020 I went to Poland to train w/ the Iceman himself; Wim Hof.  This five day experience changed my life. 

We also discuss some tips for how to handle the cold, hiking w/ no shirt on in 17degree weather, a 10 minute dip, the benefits of the cold and more.  This is a fun episode.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
