As a part of the Finnish Sauna Society I have to say that cold plunge are a necessity. Great video!

The Buff Dudes exploring all these diets and training techniques is such a great service to the fitness world. I really appreciate your commitment to self improvement and sharing information. I've been following you guys since the very beginning and I have benefited greatly from your channel. Thank you. 💪

Thank you Steve 💪

buff dad is hilarious i love every video he’s in

Brandon and Hudson going full fire and ice with one having done cold water immersion and the other doing heat exposure!

The amount of dedication you put into this practice, that you started for your health first, but then also turned into a video is astounding. It will be incredible that you did it all for one easy video, but truth is, you made it for YOURSELF, and then showed us what you've discovered. Like true pioneers do❤

Thanks Kurt. This one and our prior one on cold immersion was a lot of fun. We hope to continue to do videos like this in the future!

I love getting in the sauna after a good workout! Definitely a great part of my self care routine!

Loved it. Especially appreciate the addition of some science and history notes in these videos. And of course you guys always bring it with lots of joy. Wish you guys all the best for this year!

These past two videos on heat/cold exposure have been incredible. Keep up the great work!

Video quality has been great! Been watching you guys since the beginning, it just keeps getting better. Hoping for more collabs in the future!

Always great content from Brandon and Hudson!

Buff Nolan Dudes, been following since 2014, quality keeps topping itself.

You guys are killing it. I Love the videos lately.

Love the videos! So happy God had this channel come across my feed. So much knowledge in every video!

Buff Dudes, I've been watching your videos for years. You've inspired me and helped me maintain my workouts, and I must thank you for that. This video is by far one of your best ones. The editing and cinematography were perfect! It felt like I was watching a movie!

Amazing video production quality. I feel not only inspired, but full of knowledge from this video. I’ve been hitting the gym since 5 years ago and The Buff Dudes are a constant reminder why I first started going.

I'm currently doing the superhero plan, and loving it! Also loving these videos, dudes! Amazing production quality and direction.

@@buffdudes It's working! The quality has been outstanding so far. My hope is the new edition of the 12 week plan is out as I finish super hero. My entire year is mapped out with Buff Dudes plans. Have been for years now!

You guys are killing it with these videos - more like mini documentaries. The hard work and dedication shows through. Keep it up, guys.

Love the filmmaking choices for transitions in this video! Makes me want to build a sauna too!

You guys have been absolutely killing it lately with the videos! Great cinematography but also going deeper into certain aspects of physical conditioning that we're not hearing of as much (OR only see professional athletes submit themselves to). You guys aren't amateurs by any means but the way you approach things makes it relatable for pretty much anybody! Keep up the stunning work and god speed going into 2024 fellas!

Dang a whole year for part 2?? I want it now! Haha.

Awesome video, very informative and your video quality keeps getting better and Better. I just started Cryo therapy last week and Im working my way up to 3 mins. I would love to build a sauna after seeing yours and offsetting the cold!

Great job on the producing and editing of this video. Even the music is well done.

This was a really great video. Nicely done guys.

This is 100% opposite of the ice bath vid. So damned cool!!

Love it guys. Keep up the buffness

Inspiring and some incredible environments!

The videos lately have been bangers after bangers, well done dudes

The cinematography on this one was top notch guys. Great work as always!

Great video, good job with the new videos! Which smart scale do you use?

The quality is WOW

Great video!!

Another banger !

This video and the cold water video have been top notch! Great work and thanks for always putting out amazing content! STAY BUFF!

I prefer this one. Cold is not for me.

The quality of your videos are always amazing, quality, content, information, comedy. Its amazing

I ordered the cutting book and going to be starting it in preparation for my first show in April! The picture at 8:09 is one of the most bad ass things I have ever seen!

Buff Dudes get creative and entertaining more and more every day (and/or time). 😏 They're like the superheroes of YT. Keep it up, bros! 💪

this was so awesome! i loved the beastie boys reference too, lol! I'm from the desert so i found the ice baths to be too difficult but i would do a hot bath/sauna more easily and enjoy the benefits

Nice 💪 and thanks for the content

Liked the video. Good concept for you guys to try new things for a whole year and do a mini documentary about the results. I turn 40 this summer and have been training for years also. Ben feeling that "getting old/beat up an't keep up" too. Also didn't know about the dementia connection. That's a real concern of mine, so I might take a serious attempt at heart exposure.

We would definitely love to do more in this style! And yes, you should definitely check out heat exposure. The benefits for me have been great. Good luck with your training! 💪

The quaility and content of your videos nowadays is SO good

was cool to see your take on heat exposure, aside from keltie your the only other youtube fitness channel that hit this hardcore, interesting to see the comparison between your experience and hers (usually i stick with simply hitting the sauna after cardio for 10-15 minutes before weight training..... and yes i know the "don't do cardio before weights" argument but that's a different spill) looking forward to the follow-up

Great video! I have been doing a sit in fold up IR sauna at home (I live in a condo downtown with limited space), I look goofy as hell with my head popping out but I feel great! Just wanted to add this option for those who dont have access/space for a full blown sauna. Pro Tip - sit down fully inside the sauna for full beast mode. PS hot springs = new goal

Commenting for the algorithm, thanks for the video

Love your stuff guys!

I like how we got both extreme heat exposure and extreme cold exposure in recent weeks from the Buff Dudes. Love your content, recently purchased 3 books. Great stuff. Stay buff!

Hell ya, been on you guys for about 5 years off and on now, and i love everything I've seen. From the silly to the serious, this video tho in particular, man... i hate the fact i moved into a city.

Video 18 of reminding you guys of how much of an inspiration you are to us all. Love love

I love these guys. I was at Bend Oregon 2 years ago, I wish I met them, it would be cool

This is goals this year. I'll use this video to help convince my wife for us to get a sauna. Thanks buff dudes.

This is an amazing video!💪

Awesome video! 💪🏻🔥❄

Awesome video and some outstanding commitment! Those hot springs looked amazing! One criticism I do have is that I found the VO / ADR to be a little jarring. Your timing was good, it's just the sound that didn't add up. I think in the past you've let the live / on-location audio continue to play as you transition scenes and, personally, I think that works better.

I'm definitely going to add this to my regimen.

Amazing video, great concept that same ideas can be a mini series

Who else used to watch the buff dudes back in 2015 but just recently got back into them?

Very nice video, I’ll go to a sauna as soon as I can! I need that relaxation and stress relief. Btw, when will you compete in a bodybuilding competition? You were talking about that in your other videos. STAY BUFF! 💪🏻💪🏻

How awesome are these guys great video

Very interesting! See you next year

I like the philosophical tone in this video!

Fantastic video! I wonder how you got your hands on the polish military ponchos from 20th century! Connecting two of them forms a tent as you have shown us.

Love it! I've been meaning to get a sauna out in my backyard for a while now. Is the stove electric? Any other details or advice that you can give on that build would be stellar!

After all these years ! Still making excellent content !!! 🔥🔥🔥

Watching a heat exposure Buff Dudes video while using a sauna and hot tub is doubly therapeutic

Appreciate the bump in production quality. But please also keep simple, old-school style, no color grading videos alive too! 🙏🏼 They feel accessible, and wholesome to watch 💪🏼😆

Have you guys ever consider doing a video on red light therapy? There are benefits to help aid in recovery and healing. Always love your videos long time fan!

Nice video - good you are spreading the love for saunas. Here in Europe sauna going is very common, and many houses and even flats in scandinavian countries have saunas. The typical way of enjoying sauna in my country is 15 minutes in followed typically by 10-15 minutes outside. However, we tend to go higher in temperatures - 90-110°C, that is 194 to 230 degrees Fahrenheit

@buffdudes

Thanks for the info Sinister! Is there a particular sauna temperature gauge you'd recommend? Mine seems to struggle past 170 Fahrenheit. 230 would be brutal!!

@hcer112

5 ай бұрын

The placement of the gauge is a huge factor when measuring sauna temperatures. The Finnish sauna association recommends that the gauge is installed 1 meter upwards from the seat. Also placement near a door is not recommended. I would say the typical sauna temperature here in Finland is 70 - 90°C.

To get my US sauna hotter, we cover the thermostat sensor with a sock

I'm so glad practically everyone either has their own sauna, or at least has an access to one here in Finland.

8:08 That shot was epic!!!

You guys rock.

Pretty cool, never heard of heat exposure, but have heard of cold exposure

That hot springs looks amazing, where is it located? I’d love to make a trip

As I'm waiting for my second son to be born in a month or so, I'm dreaming and hoping the kids will be successful, healthy, happy, and buff one day, as well as having such an awesome relationship with their old man, like the two of you are having with yours.

Holy shit the production was insane on this one

That Intergalactic part made me laugh. Thanks for that.

"This time next year" Aaawww shit! Now I'm pumped!

Here to say, I’ve been following you from the very beginning. Buff dudes, YEAH! I bought an OG blue B muscle hoodie and received a buff dudes sticker. I placed this sticker on a blender bottle of mine. Almost 10 years, many sets, protein powder and pre workout later. This sticker still looks new attached to my blender bottle. So whatever company made that sticker for you guys, mad props 😂

Awesome video, dudes.

You look great, man. Glowing skin, healthy, lean. Nice haircut. Well done.

Great video! Would you happen to have a name of the brand of Barrel Sauna kit you have? Looks really nice and have been looking for one. Or did you just buy your own materials?

I've been doing a hypertrophy PPL split, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday mornings with a cardio CrossFit workout in the evenings, active rest on Wednesday and full body CrossFit workouts Thursday (Cindy workout) and Friday (Dirty Diane workout) and doing cold plunges on Wednesday and Saturday (rest days) by far the best shape I've ever been in and my physique far surpasses what my physique was just doing hypertrophy, PRs and gains are almost guaranteed, and endurance has really improved, which performance to me at 36 is way more important than what my physique looks like

Come down to Panama, you get year round heat exposure and 300 days a year of heat stroke warning.

Ive been using saunas and cold plunges for the last month and recently they've both been closed down for maintenance for 3 weeks. I didnt realise how much of an impact it would have on my mental health and general well being. I feel abit more tired after workouts and less energetic leading up to them lately. Now eagerly awaiting for the re opening.

Extreme heat exposure seems a lot more appealing to me than extreme cold exposure, although I realize both have their benefits.

Same. I can take the heat, cold not so much.

In Scandinavia and not only in Finland Sauna bathing was a family event and a way to take care of the personal hygiene. After spending time in the Sauna a cold bath are somewhat mandatory.

Nice work

3:17 the exaggerated actions make this hilarious

Brandon: Ice Hudson: Fire

You should do an episode in Japan where you visit onsen (Japanese hot springs).

I liked this film style. I was almost wanting it to be in 24 fps to make it more cinematic 😂

Next you need to get vacuum and pressure chambers and try extreme under sea or mountain top conditions - maybe you can train against rhabdomyolysis!

That really gave me survival man vibes. I think les stroud is probably watching this and thinking he needs to work out and do some heat exposure.

I would use a sauna to lose that last bit of weight for weigh in when I was in the army (yeah, I got lazy with my weight a few times and had to resort to some wrestling-style rapid weight loss, especially my last year in). I remember the last time I did it I shed 14 pounds in 7 days and spent the last 25 minutes before my weigh in the the sauna. my heart was pounding, I felt dizzy, and I definitely don't recommend nor condone doing it that way! I made sure I stayed on top of things the next time around I had to make weight.

As someone who is part Finnish, you can do what we do and do Cold therapy (roll in the snow or cold dip) then go into the sauna 🧖‍♀️👍🏼

i love the new hair so much

You should try a sauna hat, really helps when want to stay in high heat for a longer time!

I’d be curious to know, with Hudson doing the heat immersion and Brendon doing the cold water plunges, which is a better option for recovery/what do you think has better benefits in general?
