With this is mind I try to push through the current down and lack of motivation.
Round 2 : 1 min 11.16 sec
Round 3 : 1 min 14.83 sec
Round 4 : 1 min 20.01 sec
58 push-ups
As you can it was way better then yesterday and the day before but still far away from my former highs but I will get there again!
For new readers I want to explain what I am actually doing here: The Wim Hof Method consists of 3 pillars
breathing : you breathe in very deeply and exhale. But you dont exhale all the air so you kind of "charge" yourself. You do 30-40 breathe cycles and then exhale all the air out in your lunge and withhold your breath as long as possible.
cold exposure: you start taking showers or jump into an ice bath and the lenght is increasing as you progress through the course
some physical excercise : mostly some Yoga but also push-ups. What is special about the push-ups is, that you do one breahting round before them and also exhale, so you do the push ups with an empty lung.
Im Moment muss ich mich etwas durch mein Motiavtionstief quälen aber es werden auch wieder bessere Zeiten kommen.
Round 2 : 1 min 11.16 sec
Round 3 : 1 min 14.83 sec
Round 4 : 1 min 20.01 sec
58 Liegestütze
Wie Ihr sehen könnt, sind die Ergebnisse besser als gestern aber dennoch einiges von meinen Bestzeiten entfernt.
Ich bin mir aber sicher, dass ich da auch wieder hinkomme!
Für neue Leser möchte ich kurz zusammenfassen um was es hier überhaupt geht: Die Wim Hof Methode setzt sich aus 3 Pfeilern zusammen.
Atmung : Man atmet tief ein aber nicht ganz wieder aus. So "lädt man sich auf". Dies macht man 30-40 Atemrunden. Bei der letzten atmet man alles aus und hält die Luft solange wie möglich an, also auf leere Lunge.
Kälte : Man fängt an mit kurzen kalten Duschen ( 30 Sekunden). Die Zeit verlängert sich je weiter man im Kurs schreitet.
Sport : Vor allem sind es ein paar Yoga-Übungen und Liegestütze. Bei den Liegestützen ist anzumerken, das man davor auch eine Runde der Atemübungen macht und die Liegstütze auf leere Lunge durchführt.
I think he has some god gift power

I have to start again with Wim Hof. I was used to the cold water exposure (shower) but had to stop now due to some illness. I have to start again. Good reminder.

Yes, take those cold showers again :-)
Do you do the breathing also?

I tried to but did not get used to it. I stick only with the cold showers for several months.
I was impressed by the breathing technique and how long I can hold my breath.

This is the first time I've heard of Wim Hof, thanks for sharing! I could really use some cold exposure training. I'm a big softie when it comes to any temperature below 18 degrees celsius.

Yes, just try it out nothing to lose but a lot to gain :-)
There are a lot of videos on youtube were the breathing is explained also and a vice documentary I recomned if you want to know more.
