How I start my morning. Cold submerging trains the nervous system to be resilient to stress.
3 mins of cold submerging in the morning can help stimulate Fat loss and Relieves depression.
Cold submersion or Ice baths.
- Constricts blood vessels
- reduces swelling and tissue breakdown
As tissue warms:
- increased circulation
- improves overall cardiovascular health
- boost immune system
- cleanses lymphatic system
- increases testosterone
- increases fertility
- increases mental will power
- forces adaptation to acute oxidative stress
- increases energy and well-being
The advantage of cold submersion is that the entire body's musculature and soft tissue will be treated, rather than a concentrated area with an ice pack.
Do you got what it takes? If you take a plunge :)
Let me know, in the comment section below!
OMG that's crazy! O_o I don't know if I have what it takes! Wait until I tell Omar. lol I'd love to see HIM try it! I'll do it if he does it first haha
You don't have to put ice. I go I'm my pool around 5:30am for 5mins.
Oh I do something similar. At the end of every shower, I turn it to cold water and just stand there for a few minutes because it's good for the hair and skin.
follow me back )
so instead of a hot tub they should invent a cold tub eh?
I don't know if I could sit in a cold ice bath though!
It's like having a cramp. Its hurts for a couple seconds, then the body will adapt.
I haven't gotten up the courage, or ice, to try a tub full, but I do end my shower with a - brr! - cold water treatment.
Awesome! More enjoyable is to have a small container or pool outside. cold submerge outside for 5mins then come inside to a warm epsom salt bath for 15mins. You will feel amazing!!!
Are you a bot?
No I am real :)
