Thanks so much! It helped a LOT

all good advices

I've only ever taken cold showers so hopefully this will help take my first cold bath
-
I can’t believe you filmed this video inside the cold plunge!! Great tips btw!!
-
Bro thanks for the tips, I only lasted the first time 10 seconds lol, but after I saw your video I put thought about that it’s just in my head, and slowed my breathing, I lasted 30 seconds!
-
Thanks so much for this! I went with cold water from the tap first, it was cold but these tips helped
-
Great thank you so much that’s helpful. I have been plunging for about a year taking time to go colder and longer I did find that when I plunged in I needed to put my head right under the water first and then bring my head up and then breathe, and the Lord’s prayer laugh out loud.

That's a nice set up.
-
Great advise- one point though, you Do want to work up to wiggling and waving your hands and feet around. Your body heat will create a sheath of warmth around you that will not give you all the benefits of that specific temperature. Beginners- yes. As you progress, make sure you move a bit.
-
Thanking man my first time 😅
-
Is there a minimum time to aim for as a beginner. At let's say 55 degrees starring 20 or 30 seconds to build up? What about getting out, immediately go for the towel and warm or let your body naturally regulate back? Thanks! Starting tomorrow!
-
I do cold showers and cold swimming. I have no problems mentally with the cold plunge. BUT my arms frigging hurt! It was like crazy pins and needles and it was an achy hurt. Would that stop if I spent longer in the water?
-
Perfekt
-
What’s a safe temperature for a cold plunge?
-
Ive also seen people dunk their head in right away - does this help at all?
