The Science Behind Cooling Your Palms.
35:14 - 45:47 (10:33)
The palms of our hands have unique vasculature called AVAs which allows more heat to leave and more cool to enter the body compared to other venous arterial capillary beds, and using this knowledge, people can use a device to cool their palms to perform better in physical activities like bench press exercises.

Summary
Cooling the palms through the unique vasculature there can allow cold to pass through and maximize work per unit time. Repeated studies on this technique have shown a significant increase in the ability to perform repetitive exercises such as 500-600 pull-ups.

Summary
The speaker discusses a physiological mechanism in the body and brain that allows individuals to push themselves further and harder than they normally would, as evidenced by experiments with bench pressing and breath holding. This is not to be confused with dangerous and potentially deadly levels of extreme pushing oneself.
