The Way of the Iceman

How the Wim Hof Method Creates Radiant, Longterm Health

By: Wim Hof, Koen De Jong

Narrated by: Patric LeVang

Science has now proved 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 degress Celsius 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 more than 300 percent, The Way of the Iceman documents how anyone can use Wim’s methods to transform his or her 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 of SEALFIT, best-selling author of Unbeatable Mind and Way of the SEAL)

Critic reviews

"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 best-selling author of The School of Greatness)

“What fascinates me most about Wim Hof's method is the potential application for athletes.... [T]he 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)

encouraged to do practical

short and simple. storyline is to try practical and see the outcome. no detailed practice is explained. but give an idea to experiment.

interesting

always refreshing to have facts covered by the references. I will be interested in seeing the results of some of these methods

Good Information & Inspirational

Great stories & examples of how 'The Wim Hof Method' has completely transformed the lives of others. Most suffering from all kinds of debilitating disorders. Very inspirational as well - about the power of our body, mind, & souls, to go beyond (or past) the limits perceived by others. I also enjoyed the narrator too.

Back to the basics

In an age of convenience and a let's not create any pressure society. This book resonates with how our ancestors lived thousands of years ago. Interesting concept, worth a try.

great bookz

Great book! I will be teying the exercises! Im ezited to see the results and are planning onnsharing it with my family.

Interactive and interesting

I loved hearing this breathing and ice bath tale -

The story of Wim was sad and intense and the technical aspects of it seem to have tremendous positive effects... Now the hard question is how do I start that training. Self discipline is often difficult for me and without a local group I'm not sure I will stick to it or remember when it counts

Enjoyable and effective ( :

Inspiring and insightful - fun to test the body! Thank you for sharing : ) highly recommend for everyone

Informative

it gave a good overview of the Wim Hof Method and the health benefits associated with it.

Exciting and accessible ideas!

Some really compelling ideas and research. I love how accessible the knowledge and outlined practices are for the lay reader. I'm excited to do more research and try out the training.

Insightful and straightforward

The book is very insightful. It has a lot of scientific backing not too complicated to follow, however the narration is terrible. There are points in the book where the narrator did not know how to inflect words properly, and therefore they seem like different words. Once you get used to the strange narrator, the book is quite good.
