With sports performance training, you can take your physical and mental fitness to another level. Professional athletes from all over the world, in many different sports, conduct sports performance training to increase their strength, to become faster, to reduce their risk of injury, and to improve their mindset. Sports performance training differs from general fitness, because it is specific to a particular sport. The Wim Hof Method includes many components that can be used to improve sports performance. Professional athletes like Laird Hamilton and Alistair Overeem already practice Wim’s principles to stay on top of their game.

Without sports performance training, becoming the best in your particular type of sport will be nearly impossible. A good sports performance program is tailored to your specific needs and takes your personal characteristics, such as age, past injuries, and physical fitness, into account. Depending on the type of sport that you perform, proven techniques will be applied to help you increase your strength, speed, agility, stamina, willpower and confidence.

Sports performance training will: - improve your sports performance, while taking your personal characteristics into account - focus on the specific skills that are needed to excel in your type of sport - focus on both physical skills, mental toughness, and nutrition

Starting with the Wim Hof Method is easy. In close collaboration with his professional team, Wim Hof has created a Fundamentals video course that teaches you all the principles of his method. You can follow the video course from the comforts of your home and at your own pace— ideal for professional athletes who often have very demanding schedules. You will already start feeling the benefits of the different components of the Wim Hof Method within weeks of starting the video course. After you master the breathing exercises, meditation exercises, and cold training, incorporating these principles into your daily routine will be easy.

The Wim Hof Method is built on three pillars: breathing exercises, meditation, and exposure to cold. Together, these pillars provide you with the means to control your body. With the help of his method, Wim Hof has achieved extraordinary things, like running a half marathon in the snow on his bare feet and climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in his shorts. Athletes who follow the Wim Hof Method report that they are more focused, that they can train longer and harder, and that they recover faster since they started practicing Wim’s unique method.

I have severe arthritis in my left hip. By implementing the Wim Hof Method in my daily life, I can deal with this without getting surgery. I love Wim’s purity. His coaching inspires me and gives me energy. I’m almost 66 years old and by practicing the Wim Hof Method I feel much more...

Albert, The Netherlands

For 12 years now I have had rheumatism. Thanks to the Wim Hof Method I have been able to halve the amount of anti-inflammatory drugs. My goal is to completely stop the use of anti-inflammatory drugs after finishing the video course.

Aivar, Estonia

I am 52 years old, and after 10 weeks of the Wim Hof Method I am in the best shape I have ever been. I did 30 push-ups as a test before I started the course, and when I finished I did 100 push-ups for the first time in my life. The Wim Hof Method gives you a good mood, it’s addictive!

Monic, The Netherlands

It’s only been 4 weeks since I started, but the results are remarkable! Thank you from the heart for changing my life, my health, and my understanding about my own power and the influence I have on this. I’m looking forward to a nice cold winter in the Netherlands.

Mino, Germany

Learning Wim’s method is like studying from one of nature’s best students. My life long fear of cold is history. I now fully enjoy cold immersions, but the benefits are not limited to cold. I am now a better person and a happier being. I smile when facing life challenges.

After 8 months of daily Hoffing, puffing and cold showers I can claim to be cured of my 5 year burnout. Not having had a single cold or flu, my sore knee is working perfectly again, which was very painful the last 2 years. It is like a miracle, and I’m really grateful that our paths crossed.

Franco, USA

Wim I hope to train with you someday. I love to jump into that cold water and climb that mountain with you. Your method has truly helped me with psoriatic arthritis. I am no longer taking Humira injections for my symptoms. I am controlling it with breathing, cold showers and ice baths.

Matthew, Australia

I would have paid $10,000 for this, but that would not be enough because this has changed my life. I feel like I have taken Valium yet am supercharged. As a clinical psychologist my days can be very stressful. There is a stillness inside me now, and what I am really amazed by is the peace lasts.

Per Kristian, United Kingdom

After 3 weeks of daily practicing my medication (Naproxen) for long-standing sciatica has been cut by 80%, and my arm pain and 'pins and needles' following a neck injury 50 years ago has been halved!

Arthur, USA

I got anxiety 2+ years ago, and have had panic attacks every day since. Medicine helped a little. I came across your videos and started to walk my 2 miles a day in only a t-shirt at 20F degrees. Within 2 weeks my anxiety went away! I found it to be a miracle.

James, USA

I’ve had astonishing results battling addiction with the Wim Hof Method. It has saved my life and is the only thing that worked on getting clean and healthy. I go ahead and get my suffering over with in the cold showers, so I don't have to suffer throughout the day. Pretty good trade to...

Georg, Germany

Cardiac and respiratory arrest began my life. Heart defect and cleft palate pushed diseases. Depression, lack of self-efficacy, and post traumatic stress disorder followed. The Wim Hof Method frees me: I am twenty-nine years old, and I love to live. Thank you!

Grant, Australia

I was born with Spina Bifida, and was told I would end up in a wheelchair. After incorporating the Wim Hof Method into my daily life I have begun to see results in my pain levels and athleticism. I am no longer looking down the barrel of becoming a paraplegic, and I attribute that in part to the...

Raúl, The Netherlands

From the 90s to 2012 I developed hayfever symptoms and had to take daily medications in order to cope. The effect of these medications only lasted for several hours. By using the Wim Hof Method training daily, my body has conquered hayfever symptoms since 2013.

Benjamin

I started the Wim Hof method in October of 2018, and now the holes I had in my brain are gone. My neurosurgeon was so impressed by the scans that he told me I don't have to come back anymore. I take this as proof that this method works to regenerate brain tissue.
