Paleo Pete took to Instagram to explain his new found interest in Breath Enhancement Training and yes, it’s as strange as it sounds.
He uploaded a selife with Nam Baldwin, who’s an expert in the field, and explained, “I had one of the coolest experiences yesterday with this man from BET [Breath Enhancement Training].”
He added: “Breath Enhancement Training is some serious stuff that should be taught in all schools and I can highly recommend getting a one on one coaching with Nam.”
This left us wondering what on earth is BET and why does Pete think it should be taught in schools?
According to Nam’s website , “BET will help take your physical and psychological abilities to a new level.”
The complex explanation continues: “Your performance will dramatically improve with better breathing practices as your heart beat, nervous system and the emotional centres of your brain all respond favourably.”
Although we are not sure that this definition makes the practice seem any clearer, we gather that Breath Enhancement Training gives you greater lung capacity and the psychological tools to overcome a fear of drowning.

The My Kitchen Rules judge clarified in his social media post, “As someone who gets s**t scared at surfing 8 to 10 foot cloudbreak for fear of not being able to hold my breath long enough and drowning, this will be a game changer for me.”
“At 42 yrs of age it is never too late to learn new tricks for this old dog. Thanks Nam you bloody legend. We are booking the kids in too next time,” he shared.
This isn’t the first time the dad-of-two has dabbled in peculiar practices.
Earlier this year he caused plenty of controversy as the cookbook Bubba Yum Yum: The Paleo Way For New Mums, Babies and Toddlers, Peter co-authored was recalled after a recipe for DIY baby milk formula, consisting of liver and bone-broth was deemed to be dangerous.
The cookbook which caused severe backlash for Pete Evans
At the time the president of the Public Health Association of Australia told The Australian Women’s Weekly, “In my view, there’s a very real possibility that a baby may die if this book goes ahead.”
However the 42-year-old defended the book vehemently, telling Sunday Night, “This recipe has been in print, in publication, for over 20 years, in America.”
He added: “I think it’s sold a million copies and never once was there any issue with it. There’s no recorded case of harm from that one recipe.”
