Urbanite #5: Increase your pain threshold

Another post in the Urbanite series; how to increase your pain threshold. A real unique post in this series demonstrating how certain bodily techniques help you withstand pain, from what I am led to believe these little activites genuinly help in certain 'sticky situations'.


Enjoy :)

    I've noticed that hook breathing works, but so does focusing on a point in time when you know the pain will be gone. That helps me the most.

    Tips sort of work, but if you're making a conscious effort to avoid pain, chances are you're going to amplify it

    Useful information. I do hook breathing already, just off instinct.

    Does stretching your legs for an extended period of time really hurt? Feels great for me lol.. but all in all awesome tips, will definitely give them a try for the added benefits of a high pain tolerance ;)

    i've noticed that when i take showers with cold water, it initially hurts, but after a few times, i just sort of get used to the discomfort.
