The Way of The Iceman

How The Wim Hof Method Creates Radiant Longterm Health--Using The Science and Secrets of Breath Control, Cold-Training and Commitment

Overview

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
