I saw that several athletes used it in Tokyo 2020 and now I see that in 2024 the gold winner recommended it. My brother is a marathon runner and he started using it and he says this made a difference to me I Buy one because my next goal is to run a marathon.
Great video explaining how it worked. Thank you for the code, which actually worked. I ordered today and got a discount on the cap with all the pieces. I also ordered the headband without the pieces so I can wear that indoors on a treadmill (I will just move the pieces from the cap to the headband). I am working on my second marathon, Houston in Jan 2025. Not at your level and hope to break 4 hours this time. I will wear the cap for that one. PS- If you cannot cook steak outside due to the grill being down or bad weather, you can do it on the stove top indoors. I recently watched Gordon Ramsey on RUclips to learn how. After a few tries I got it down and tastes just like they do in a restaurant. Way cheaper than what a restaurant charges and it does not take long at all.
Very interesting and useful. I see you are using a cap as well, wearing it backwards. Reasoning? I suffer immensely in the heat - more than most I would say - and am keen to explore any method that will help me manage this a bit better.
Unfortunately, Biofreeze doesn't actually reduce your skin or core temperature after it has dried. It stimulates cold receptors by blocking the sodium channel which tricks the body to feeling cool...without actually cooling.

The thing is...the pricing. I am sure it works (very) good, but I don't feel comfortable spending 200$ on a cap.

@@mitalentos3791 Oh, I am sure it does make a difference, but so does a wet cap/piece of cloth.
Even wet hair works just like it...
They have to invent a cooling vest or something like that to reduce the core temperature
I'm here because of the Olympic Marathon in Paris 2024.
Ok

Thanks interesting video. Never tried one but agree the concepts and science behind it all makes sense.

I have started wearing the visor with the omius bricks built in to the band so I can use the bill of the visor to keep the sun off my neck.
@@MattHansonTri thank you for the prompt reply. I’m going to give the band a try.
Great, check out the discount code in the video description to save a bit!
You said something really important. What if you use biofreeze to cool you down on your wrists, neck and forehead?

Did not work for Kipchoge at Paris 2024 Olympics.
But worked for Bashir Abdi (silver in Paris)
And Sifan Hassan
