Jimmy T. Martin: Cold, Cryo, and Cancer
Today on the show is an incredible human - Jimmy T. Martin. We get into the science behind cold therapy, the brown fat you want more of on your body, how to turn an idea into one of Manhattan's hottest studios. This is a brave, candid conversation that hits my heart and if you could make a special place to hear everything that unfolds in the next 45 minutes, I think you will look at life a little differently.

Show Notes
Today on the show is an incredible human. Jimmy T. Martin is helping to bring new modalities to make people feel better. He is also a survivor. He co-founded BRRRN Studios in New York City - the world’s first, cool temperature fitness studio. The studio has been featured on Good Morning America, Live with Ryan and Kelly, Men’s Health, GQ, Vogue and People Magazine.
On this episode we get into the science behind cold therapy, the brown fat you want more of on your body, how to turn an idea sitting on your laptop into one of Manhattan's hottest (but coolest) fitness studios, and how beta testing your program inside a 38°F beer fridge in Brooklyn made all the difference in the world.
I want to also prepare everyone for the candid and at-times difficult conversation we have about Jimmy’s role as a caregiver to his late wife and her battle with cancer. Their bravery, her beauty, her strength, and this very real story is something we have the honor to experience. This show really hits my heart and if you could make a special place for yourself to be able to hear everything that unfolds in the next 45 minutes, I think you will look at life a little differently after the experience.
