Ben Greenfield and Peter Wasowski discuss the Vasper system, which uses water cooling to let you train hard while keeping heart rate and blood pressure low. Peter built his first version in a tractor shed, repurposing a window air conditioner for cooling. Users report less soreness and the ability to train more often.
Yeah, I've experienced very similar effect in terms of being able to work out on the vasper, even if I've been sore from a previous day's workout or I want to exercise day after day after day with cardio and feel like I can still push. And I do agree that you experience a lot less soreness, and despite you pushing pretty hard on the thing, the heart rate and the blood pressure seem to stay pretty low. But back to your story from Hawaii. Did you just kind of like string all this stuff together, like out in your garage, or what did it look like when you first started looking into all this?
I converted a tractor shed into a lab behind my house.
And the first thing I did is I bought a window air conditioning unit and that was converted to cool water rather than.
Air.
