Investigative journalist Scott Carney thinks modern living has made us sick and weak..and he's found a solution for us.
In his new book "What Doesn't Kill Us" Scott explores how people of the past were able to traverse great distances through extreme heat and cold without modern gear, and how today more and more people are regaining their ancestral strength by exposing themselves to the elements.
On this episode Scott recounts his journey to Poland to study and train under the "Ice Man" Wim Hof - a man who has broken world records for being able to expose himself to ice and extremely cold temperatures for long periods of time.
He also explains how his training with Wim allowed him to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in 28 hours without acclimatization and how he later went on to train with Brian Mackenzie of Crossfit Endurance fame as well as big wave surfer Laird Hamilton.
And he didn't stop there.
Taking the new skills he learned from Wim, Brian, and Laird, Scott went on to complete one of the coldest, toughest, obstacle course races in the world, changing his physique and mindset along the way.
If you want to get stronger, have more energy and feel more alive - this episode is a must listen.
