I used to do them every time after the gym and they work great.
Lot of debate as to what if anything it does, spend some time on google. Unless your experiencing swelling most trainers say to avoid it. Lot of recent studies show it creates more issues then it solves when people are using it for sore muscles.
They work awesome for two a days for recovery.
I do something similar
I only take cold showers
Ive taken an ice bath ONCE
Took way to much time and way to much money to fill my tub up with ice
Just take a freezing cold shower for like 10 - 15 mins
The ice isn't really necessary, just fill your tub with cold water. If you're extra g you can even pour in a bag of ice or two and mix it around.
Livin in canada we grow up havin ice baths with polar bears
I've had one ice bath never again my dick went into hiding for a few hours after
In one of tim ferris books if you go from hot to cold to hot baths it triples testosterone count or some thing like that
When my tendons ache I spray cold water on them from the shower head. That feels great so I'd imagine an ice bath would be incredible as long as I could heat wrap my junk.
