Bond star Daniel Craig reveals his ice cold beauty secret

As heartthrob James Bond, he has the body most men long for and every woman finds irresistible. And now the
beauty secret to the toned and slender actor, Daniel Craig, can be revealed. Mr Craig, 44, has taken to a form of
intense therapy ahead of filming for his latest 007 movie.

The therapy can now be named as kriotherapy, a treatment in which he endures freezing cold temperatures to
stimulate his blood flow and give him more energy for exercise. It is believed the treatment can double the amount
of time a person can exercise. The session itself involves moving around in a cold chamber which is between minus
100ºC – 135°C, for up to 3 minutes. The extreme change in temperature can trigger cold receptors which in turn
affect the nervous system by releasing endorphins, the body’s own pain killing and anti-inflammatory agents. And
with this sudden drop in temperature, blood is directed to vital organs and stops the amount of blood flow to
injured areas. This makes kriotherapy useful for easing recurring injuries or aches and pains.

Personal trainer Simon Waterson, who has trained James Bond stars Pierce Brosnan, Denise Richards and Halle
Berry, helped Daniel Craig prepare for his role as 007. Mr Craig’s workouts involved power lifting and working out
extremely hard with heavy weights.
