Ice baths

[rockymarciano1]

Does a bath with realy cold water have the same effect as a bath with ice in it?

[g0tcha]

Probably but it won't be as effective as a ice bath at optimum temperature. If you google ice bath temperature then I'm sure you'll find the right temp otherwise just dumb 2 bags of ice into your bath and all is good. I haven't had to take and ice bath in aong while though because I haven't taken breaks or flat out stopped working out. I do love taking them becUse your while body feels completely refreshed even after a brutal workout.

How can you stay in them?

I tried a cold bath after a workout and I nearly passed out after a few seconds.

highly doubt u almost passed out unless there was something wrong with you before hand. Its all mental man. after the first minute you go numb so its not that bad. after you go numb its just a matter of finding something to pass the time for about 5-10 minutes. music is always kool. also dont take a shower or do anything that will heat your body up faster then it naturally would right after because you will negate the effects of what you are trying to accomplish. throw some clothes back on and chill for about an hour while your body naturally heats up then its ok to take a shower.

ive actually never seen brock lesnar do it but this is a common practice among athletes in all sports. not too long ago tito ortiz from ufc who is married to jenna jameson was training for his come back and he video taped his icebaths and he just recently had a kid so go figure. its actually hot water that will make you infertile for a short period of time. saw a documentary a long time ago where 2 scientists were doing a wierd study where they would submerge their testicles in a certain heated temperature water for a certain amount of time a day and it really killed of like 95% of the ***** but you would have to do it daily for it to work and youll become fertile within days of not doing it as you produce new *****.

Whats a ice bath do

Whats a ice bath do

quickest way to reduce inflammation of the muscles especially after a brutal workout. it will drive out the bad blood from your muscles and the 1 hour after you get out while your warming up naturally your body will pump fresh blood into them so they feel refreshed and this significantly will reduce recovery time especially when you havent trained in a long time and your starting out training camp. played like 3 hours of basketball and it felt like my legs were gonna fall apart, after i did a 10-15 minute icebath on my legs it felt like i could go another 3 hours easy.

One has to do this after an intense workout or can be done after a couple days?
