“I’ll puke up some clickbait and then maybe people will watch my hacky videos and give me attention.”
What a miserable existence indeed.

I almost had a stroke, a very scary thing, I started doing the Wim Hof method and I started feeling better. I got my energy back, could feel my brain becoming alive and my mood changed. I am 73 years old woman.

Lol, im almost 50. Was an alcoholic maniac for decades.
The wim hof method gave me a new life. Now I can run 10 miles, do 100 push ups and 20 pull ups.
I definitely will do my breathing exercise now, have a good day.

Whim Hoff is not about learning to hold your breath . You have just used this to catch peoples attention because whim hoff is popular. Everyone has seen how shallow this is and that's why your catching grief.

[msca]

dont take away from Wims message with your clickbait

[CateAndChess]

This Guy Uses Wofs name just to earn some credits, What a waste of time

Wim gave his body to science and proved his method, perhaps this lad can do the same.

Nice to promote your ytb channel through a negative opinion

[cimetovsan]

Wim hof method is just pranayama thats been practiced and proven for ages. Go get life

[mtxar]

for anyone out there, this is clickbait, period!

[jordanwright]

That's not the reason people practice the wim hoff method. The benefits of the wim hoff method far outweighs the ability to hold your breath for most people

[andydurnford]

to save everyone the time....The basic gist is that practicing hyperventilation can lead to passing out when holding your breath afterwards. Obviously passing out in water isn't ideal. To train breath holds, you want to condition yourself to CO2 levels instead of removing the CO2 via hyperventilation.

[janicenagao]

The practice is not to hold breath longer.

I have noticed that Peopel who accomplished very little in their lives are very critical of Wim… 🤔 he helped a lot of people, including me.

[ChristobalGonzalez-qn]

I'm confused, you just said that I could hold my breath longer and longer, but if I want to learn how to hold my breath I should go to your channel. Wimhoff isn't working anymore. I can hold my breath for 5mins, it's pretty scary. Now I'm really scared after watching this

[mtns]

I find the whole breath hold thing very soothing. I enjoy the the whole pattern. It gives me a huge sense of clam and a feeling that i can get through my day in a peaceful way. Im not sure why people are hating on you for doing your own thing though.

Technically it is hyper(excessive) ventilating(breathing) but, it is a very controlled form of hyperventilating and it prepares for the next step which is hypoventilation. The whole goal of the method is training your body by inducing stress, it's like training your muscles which you do by "stressing" them and this is no different, its just internal.

These excercises are of such short duration, its not comparable to what people think you mean when you say hyperventilation. People assume that it means UNcontrolled excessive breathing and yes, that is dangerous since the body thinks oh man i gotta breath i need to get those c02 levels up, thats also why they get you to breath in a plastic bag for example since you will breathe in the c02 that you just let out causing the c02 levels to rise which stops the hyperventilation usually

Wim hof breathing helped me so much. I dont know where id be if i didnt find it!

[donaldrichardson]

don't like. Ride coattails if you like, it's on me to avoid people who do that if I have a problem with it, but, man, talk about the thing you said you were gonna talk about. It's no surprise, the reason is bc drowning is less than ideal. But at least your short was short, that's appreciated

[GreenPistachio]

I couldn't find the video you say exactly why?
