No 556 - The Cold Fix

The health benefits of cold water immersion is starting to become more well known with people like Wim Hof promoting the activity on main stream media on a regular basis. I have found myself there is certainly a feeling of rejuvenation after a cold water bathing experience, however this usually takes place on warm sunny days high in the mountains. Sara Barnes takes the other approach and swims with people who regularly cut their way through ice with a chain saw to achieve a zero degree immersion. Her experience is covered in her book The Cold Fix and we discuss all this within the podcast and video. .
