Ep.49 Breath is Life w/ Ben Dubin Part 2
Ben lead Chris Pearce and I through a Wim Hof session. Listen in or follow along and see what happens. It is invigorating and I promise you will enjoy. Follow the instructions below
Breathing instructions
“Every training begins with proper breathing. Sit or lie down comfortably in a relaxing environment and calm your mind. Begin to breathe consciously. Start slowly and inhale ever deeper until you are filling your lungs completely. Maintain a steady rhythm breathing in fully from your belly. On the exhales simply let the air go. Keep count and continue until you get to 30-40 breaths. After the final exhale try holding your breath for 1-3 minutes. This is the retention time. When the urge to breathe arises take one more deep breath and hold it for 10-15 seconds. This constitutes one cycle”
“this should be somewhat strenuous but never uncomfortable. If it becomes too hard or unpleasant, stop and try again later. You will get better with practice. Just stay relaxed but focused”
“Never perform the breathwork in or around any body of water, while driving or in any environment where loss of consciousness can have serious consequences”
Always consult a physician prior to engaging in any exercise or fitness routine to make sure you are healthy to do so.
Ep.49 Breath is life w/ Ben Dubin
“When the breath wanders the mind is unsteady, but when the breath is calmed, the mind too will be still.” – Hatha Yoga Pradipika, 500-year-old yogic text.
The ancients understood the power of breath and today we reach back to this ancient knowledge. In episode 49 we sit with Ben Dubin a Firefighter and Wim Hof instructor to discuss the power of breath, it’s healing and rejuvenating strength. I hope you enjoy this episode and follow it up with part 2 where you can follow us as we do a full Wim Hof session. Check it out!

Ep.48 Semper Stronger with Rebecca Rouse
Ep.47 Tier 1 Athletes with Kevin Easley
No one understand the squad, they miss-use, they cancel, they just do not understand these special operators. From my perspective, and I’m not just blowing smoke, Squadies are a wicked special and talented group of folks and a serious everyday asset. In episode 47 Kevin Easley and I discuss a little about the work of the Squad, culture in the fire service, Tier_1_Athletes and so much more! Please enjoy!
