I’m surprised with their current popularity this is the first time it’s come up on the site.
Yes they work, do not go into it thinking it’s enjoyable by any means.
Close thread.
“Duck hunting gives a man a chance to see the loneliest places …blinds washed by a rolling surf, blue and gold autumn marshes, …a rice field in the rain, flooded pin-oak forests or any remote river delta. In duck hunting the scene is as important as the shooting.” ~ Erwin Bauer, The Duck Hunter’s Bible, 1965
Saw a documentary on Wim Hoff recently, mom brought two kids to him that had untreatable brain cancer or something of the sort. Started them on cold therapy, among other things, and one it totally cured, other is on their way, allegedly.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”
-Samuel Adams
I dont know about ice baths but check into your diet, too

There’s science behind it but I’m not smart enough to explain it. I know they work for me. I’ve been extremely busy and don’t have an ice machine, but I would like to get back into doing them regularly.
Definitely help. I am wanting one for my house. I enjoy the mental challenge of trying to see how long I can stand it. I have read that your metabolism gets a kick from longer exposure.

Watch the video will answer all your questions. Would also suggest looking into the info he has posted up on diet. Good info on a lot of subjects. If you happen to drive a lot given them a listen!

Been doing daily at least weekdays since April. Yes benefits. Listen to Huberman. Also Gary Brecka. Not life changing for me but definitely noticeable and helpful. Start with water in low 60s maybe 3 min. Walk it down from there. I’m 5 min a day 40-45 degrees. You’ll be amazed how quickly your body adapts. Adrenaline hit is for real from it. I feel fantastic every morning afterwards and lasts for the rest of the morning. Rarely if ever sore from workouts anymore. Give it two weeks, make it to a month, you’ll miss it when you don’t do it.

Another easy way is to go from hot to a 2min cold water rinse to finish off your morning shower. It is supposed to stimulate blood cells, help muscles and skin....all that good crap.
It also creates some good metal toughness.
Fix your diet first , then your exercise, then your sleep, then you vitamins and supplements , then worry about a damn ice bath.

I take a plunge every weekday before I get to the grind, it’s been a game changer for me.
