"In the “BecomingTheIceman” subreddit, a user asked how Wim got the scar over his belly button. He received this reply: About fifteen years ago Wim was swimming at a fountain in Amsterdam and decided to give himself an enema on the nozzle of the jet."

Looks like he overdid it and needed surgery.

So much for Internet Gurus!

The only thing worse than an ice bath is listening to those guys doing a pod cast

It's the Crossfit equivalent of breath work. Similar in marketing approach too

I think crossfit is a lot better these days than it used to be.
