I Took an ICE BATH Everyday for a Week

[@JohnnJohnsonn]

I’ve been doing ice baths 5 days a week for the last 2-3 months . And I find myself like doing it in the morning more because I feel fresh and more energetic for the day. Weird how people can have opposite affects. Great video!

[@ajx3993]

I started wim hoff method almost 10 years ago. Most bang per input for me was the first step. As follows: everytime you shower, in the middle of the shower you turn to all the way cold and do that for 1minute while breathing deep and slow. Then you can go warm again. After this i rarely got sick and havent felt cold since (i felt cold all the time, everywhere before) Great Vid 🤙

Ya for beginners. The best is to just do an entire cold shower every time

After a very long run, a 20 minute ice bath followed by elevating your legs for 20 minutes (ideally while wearing compression pants) can reduce recovery by a full day. I understand that a post workout ice bath may reduce hypertrophy, but you have to consider what is your goal. When I was doing this it was strictly for run recovery and it worked out great. It also helped me cool down and stop the muscle damage quicker after the workout and led to me feeling back to normal about an hour or so after the run. It also allowed me to have a light run the next day which also helped me to avoid a lot of soreness. In addition; since your body is very overheated after a long run, the ice bath is only uncomfortable for the first minute and after that is actually enjoyable.

Don't know if you'll read this comment but after resistance training MPS (muscle protein synthesis) is elevated anywhere from 48-72hours so as ice baths dull MPS if you take an ice bath within 72 hours of workouts you will actually decrease muscle hypertrophy

[@vulcanprincess1584]

awesome! another thing i think is interesting is that the body wants to adapt, so maybe it would be beneficial like you said to not do ice baths too often, to maximize the benefits. otherwise its just adapting to something unfun like cold water. or to switch from warm to cold water, or cold to warm water, idk and combining the ice bath with the wim hof method for cold weather tolerance is something that people have had good results with! that pre-workout formula is pretty interesting, i'd like to see more experimental data on that from people :D I myself have done a few cold showers that help wake up my mind when im feeling down and starting to get depressed, and same with the wim hof breathing method, but i can find it really overwhelming at times because i get dizzy from the breathing, and the tingling sensation is a bit overwhelming, but afterwards after my body calms down i always feel really refreshed and mentally centered, and calmer. And combining that with red light therapy would probly be great too! combining all the healthy ideas into a schedule that works out well I know bryan johnson is sorta doing that with his extensive anti-aging routine, as well and combining that with things like the "knees over toes guy's exercises for longevity could only lead to more positive results, i think. there's also this exercise kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpbYdXeAqpt6pLM for longevity and endurance/stamina, and altho im mostly a non-weight exerciser myself, i respect the weight lifting too anywawy im bored so i typed all this stuff out here, haha

[@liammoore5340]

Solid focus dude 🤘. I've also been getting ice baths recently especially when injured or on rest days and one thing to note is that the cold water coming out of the tap will be variable depending on the season and where you live. Here in eastern Canada for e.g. in summer I would make ice by filling 6 x 6L plastic containers in a chest freezer and this brought the water to 12C/53F. In Fall this went down to 8.5C/47F. Rn in winter the water coming out of the tap is 5C so no ice is actually needed as the ideal range is 10C-15C for the therapeutic benefits. This is probably why it felt so much colder when you tried it 🥶

[@nathanjames1089]

I started taking cold showers in the afternoons/evenings every day starting this September until I got sick a couple weeks ago, I don't think I got cold from the showers I just didn't want to stress the body more while it was fighting something. It's getting pretty cold here as well so I haven't done it much recently, last one was three days ago. Overall I feel refreshed usually, it always feels warm getting out of the shower, the tolerance has been building steadily while the water is also getting colder. Jumped in a couple coldish lakes recently and being submerged is a totally different feeling.

[@InfinityExt]

Can you do a biphasic sleep experiment for maybe a month? You would go to sleep when the sun goes down, trying to keep artificial light at night as low as possible. The low amount of night should make you naturally tired. Then, you wake up in the middle of the night, preferably four hours after going to sleep. You stay awake for a couple hours then go back to sleep until the sun rises or there is light in the sky. It works best if you naturally wake up in the middle of the night instead of having an alarm to wake you.

[@RedPilledRants]

Here's the real effect. I live in Roseburg Oregon where it gets around 35 to 45° right now. But you know what I wear? A tank top and shorts most of the days or at least the tank top and some joggers. Walk around like that every day you don't have to worry about taking a 20 minute ice bath.

[@roykalager2360]

Heat and movement betters your recovery. The adrenaline that you get from an ice bath. Heats your body up more. So I feel like 5 minutes is way too long. You don't want to get cold. That slows down your blood. That inflammation repairs your body.

Also i wanted to say thats very interesting about the affect the ice bath has on muscle growth and how long you have to wait is insane

[@badfoot7528]

I believe that most studies in cold plunges the main consensus is aim for 11 minutes a week. When I first started I’d just try to make it a minute and then beat that next time and slowly progress to the 11 minutes a week. I would have never survived if I jumped straight to 5 minutes . I would do it every couple of days and have been doing it for about 2 months and now I’m on day 20 consistently every morning. I did them last winter but stopped when it got too warm out. I now can relax in it for 3 -7 minutes just depends on the day. I also got a stock tank that sits outside, the winter keeps it cold, no need for ice, more room than a bath tub and it’s nice to hear the birds and look at the sky in a meditative state while in there. I feel like if I had to do it in my house I wouldn’t want to because I’m already in my comfort zone . To each their own but in my experience the cold plunge has been the best thing I’ve done for myself.

i do ice baths on a regular basis for a bout 2 years now (especially in the winters) im a professional parkour athlete and put a ton of stress on my body with 7 days a week workouts and a lot of other things that are more mentally. i feel like the ice bath is a destressor, as while im getting in i get a spike of stress, after about 20 seconds i start to feel very zen like, even feels like after sitting still for a minute i can feel an outline around my body wich feels warm (this goes away as i move). i have 0 thoughts in my head at that point and i get out when im fully adapted or start getting cold again. when getting out i have a numb feeling in both hands and feet but feel very warm after getting out i generally feel more energized afterwards and go into the day with i clear head without any worries. alltough on some days it feels like it drains a lot of energy and i can’t get into that zen meditative kindoff state, also going for workouts on these days i feel more heavy. i find an ice bath easier to handle then a cold shower. and it helps me keep up with the stress of all the other things going on and balances out everything. if i where to take ice baths in the evening i would not be able to sleep for the next 3 hours minimum, due to the release of adrenaline i think.

[@MattMcConaha]

My impression is that a lot of the benefit of cold shower/baths is from that shock period, which tapers off after a minute or so. Whenever I do a cold shower (which I do at the end of a hot shower), I just stop when I start feeling like my breathing is coming back under control. Or if I'm feeling ambitious, I'll do a few cycles of a Scottish shower with each cold phase just getting me through the shock phase.

Just for reference, it looks like Wim Hoff was doing "cloud hands" which is part of the Yang-style Tai Chi set.

The evidence suggests a number of things you need to be aware of. Most people go too cold and too long. Inducing a hyperthermia state isn’t the aim. You want the “cold shock” effect and so 30 to 60 seconds is enough. Again 12 Celsius is cold enough. Remember that we are warm adapted apes from an evolutionary point of view. It might help recovery but you will lose much of the hypertrophy gains. Also for best results on study suggested 20 mins sauna then 30 seconds plunge and repeat has real benefits. Doing the whole Wim Hoff thing is more to do with breathing and everyone’s wish to look tough.

Cold causes white fat cells to utilize their stores of vitamin A to transform into brown fat cells where they begin burning their own energy stores to create heat. So your fat begins to burn itself. Cold also causes a very high growth hormone increase as the body expects it will need to start burning more fat and shivering muscles for warmth, like a bear or other hybernating animals during winter seasons where food becomes scarce the body has this fasting ketosis effect to boost energy and fat burn during those months where it cannot find enough foods for energy. This makes ice baths very synergistic with extended water fasting and cardio, therefore taking the bath when you are fasted before eating in the morning and then doing cardio would be best. Instead of eating and lifting weights icebaths benefit cardio and fasting catabolic states much better than the anabolic muscle building stuff. The opposite causes problems because as soon as you eat your blood thickens with all the nutrients you ate so then the vasoconstriction of cold causes slower blood flow and potentially even strokes and clots it can kill somepeople especially cigarette smokers and obese peoplewith high blood pressure, while also not being able to utilize the fat cells and growth hormone for warmth due to glucose and insulin taking the wheel instead duringthis time if food was ate prior. Similar to the effects of caffeine or cocaine, if you are fasted those are perfectly fine but if your blood is too thick the vasoconstrictionof those substances actually makes you more tired since oxygen isn't reaching the brain and they also cause strokes and clots Think ofan ice bathin that same catagory as a stimulantconstricting vessels, you don't want to over eat before so it works best on a cutting diet rather than bulking and the after fatigue is the same as coming off caffeine and cocaine or other stimulants it is adrenal fatigue and also a slight dopamine withdrawal which can be alleviated with things that increase serotonin like 5htp and milk or coco, or vitamin b6 that blocks prolactin and makes the brain feel ok with less dopamine In general if you're taking ice baths while cutting or fasting and doing lotsof cardio not only the experience itself will be much more beneficial but also the lethargy and after effects would be lessened. If you look at wild animals you would notuce cold is much more powerful in assisting a catabolic food scarcity state rather than anabolic relaxation muscle building. The focus of cold is burning fat for both warmt and energy while preserving muscle but not necessarily building muscle. When a bear wakes up in spring it is much skinnier and suuuuuperhorny and virile due to an extreme increase in growthhormone and reduction in things like aromatisation from fat cells and prolactin release. It wakes up with so much aggression qnd energy and hunger ready to have explosive sex with every female it finds and murder every other living thing. A bear before hybernation is very different than one after hybernation. Basically every spring bears turn into ultimate killing machines and sex gods. The cold and fasting are to thank for that lol. Sorry this was long, I hope it helps somepeople understand the natural purposes of cold/ice baths and how the body uses it particularly for cutting while people often make the mistake of trying to use it for bulking were it doesn't shine very well and could potentially even hurt gains because it's making the body want to burn and cut like a strong stimulant like cocaine instead of helping with anabolic stuff Like if you take too much preworkout you're basically ruining the point of the weight lifting because all the stimulants make you morecatabolic than anabolic especially with cortisol increases and reducing sleep. Taking ice baths while trying to bulk is like smoking methamphetamine and expecting to eat more food and gain weight, it's two opposite things working against each other. Triggering a shit ton of adrenaline and dopamine and HGH and cortisol are all extremely stimulatory catabolic hormones but then expecting to bulk andbe catabolic is backwards, it's just creating a lot of adrenal fatigue and calorie burning that counters the attempts at bulking. To bulk you need to maximise recovery parasympathetic anabolic states which means avoiding adrenal hormones like dopamine norepinepherine and cortisol in favor of testosterone and serotonin-melatonin
