323 - The Limits of Human Endurance with Mike McCastle


Listen Later

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!
