Host, Head Coach and Performance Dietitian Chris Newport talks with Coach Maggie in our latest podcast relating to research on deliberate cold exposure for health and performance. As a bonus, she happens to be a seasoned long distance swimmer...in some pretty cold water, so we get to hear all about her experiences and her future plans!
Deliberate cold water exposure can be amazing for not only mental and physical health, but performance in endurance sports as well. We discuss some strategies for getting started with deliberate cold exposure as well as defining what "cold" actually means. We also discuss when to do cold water exposure in relation to your workouts.Β
Finally, we get a glimpse into Maggie's long distance swimming career, including some of the races she's done as well as some of her future plans (stay tuned for a "cool" announcement!)
