323 - The Limits of Human Endurance with Mike McCastle

Mike McCastle set a new world record on Jan 23, 2021, immersing himself in ice for 2 hours and 40 minutes and surviving! He joined me on Episode 323 of The Strenuous Life Podcast to talk about this absolutely insane challenge including

• The physical preparation and mental strength required to it off,
• The limits of the human body,
• Tummo (inner fire) breathing and visualisation,
• How 'normal' people can use his principles to challenge themselves,
• How his father's struggle with Parkinson's motivates him to persist in his 12 Labors project,
• And much more!

I'm SURE you're going to love this episode!
