@@didgonedoneitfasho1732 Nope, the important part is to come to your bodys limit Every day. It's a daily task. This makes your mind and your body stronger. Once per week is not enough. It's like going to the gym one day 7 hours or every day one hour. Wich way your muscles grow faster? It's exactly the same. That's why every day 3 minutes and till your limit is better than 11 minutes one day per week
Yes very healthy to activate cold shock response and the diving response at the same time… can give heart stroke to people who have little experience with cold exposure. If you’re NOT experienced, don’t step in a ice bath and dive under people. It can be very dangerous and for your heart its like stepping on the gas and on the brakes at the same time.
I started with 30 seconds now I'm up 20 minutes. But I don't recommend it to anyone. It takes a long time to heat up again when I do this for more than 10 minutes. I'll feel cold (with no shivering) up to 2 hours or more unless I drink a large mug of hot chocolate, wear some socks and a heavy sweater and try to nap it off. When I don't follow that routine I'll just be cold for 2 hours or more.
The most important part is to listen to your body. One day, you might feel like doing only 1-3 minutes, and the next day, you might feel like doing 7-10 minutes. There might be reasons for that. I've gotten sick a few times from pushing myself too far on days when I should have listened to my body and wasn't feeling at my best. Push yourself, but don't overdo it.
It’s 11 minutes a week. I don’t believe for a second that yall are in there that long. If you are your water is definitely not cold enough. Or maybe you’re just full of shit.
Just did it for the first time Sunday. Did 6 minutes. Waited 20 minutes, added more ice and did 6 more minutes. I have thoracic radiculopathy, cervical dystonia, and fibromyalgia. It felt soooo great afterward. I was so relaxed and without pain for quite a while. I LOVE THIS.
Wim says 11 minutes is the maximum length you need to stay in as far as being beneficial.... Move around in there don't just sit still break that thermal sheath
Don't try to do 10+ minutes until you've been at it consistently for at least a month. 3-5 minutes is the optimum for many of the benefits. When starting out, if your body starts shivering uncontrollably, set a timer for 1 minute and then get out. That's your body telling you it's struggling to keep your core temps warm.
It's totally possible for anyone to do a 5/10/15 minutes of ice bath . I usually do 4-5 minutes. I am doing an another bath (+4°C) it'll mine 49th in a row
5 minutes can be a lot for people. I think the general recommended length especially for beginners is more like 2-3 minutes. You don’t want to experience after drop. I’ve experienced it and even when you get out and try to warm up you are very cold for a long time and I was even shivering for very long time and it’s not good for you or fun at all. I practice the wim hof method and done hundreds of cold showers and a few ice baths along with a cryo chamber. Wasn’t just being a baby or dramatic, after drop is a real thing and don’t force 5 minutes just because this guy on the internet does it. You can get better at longer times after progressive experiences as he said
I did 5° degrees for 10 minutes - first time. I was shivering for 15-20 minutes after it too. You just need to relax and be sure you gonna be good. It’s not that it is bad for you. Just your mind fooling you!
@@mRSChopf I would not agree that it is your mind fooling you. If I’m not mistaken after drop is literally when your core temperature begins to decline and you experience negative effects like having difficulty warming up and shivering for a long time. Not smart to recommend it for just anyone. Wim Hof can do over an hour in ice but he’s experienced and if you listen to wim and his instructors about afterdrop it is a real phenomenon and shouldn’t be messed around with. Just progressively build up and don’t be dumb. Afterdrop in the experience I described took what could have a been a good feeling after the ice bath (as is common like an endorphin rush etc) and made me feel horrible for a long time. Why not just do it the right way and reap the benefits instead of making yourself feel like shit after
I'm doing plunges from 46.5 to 57 degrees. I do two sessions back to back. I do one session for about 5-8 minutes at 53-57 degrees then a shorter plunge at 46 for 3 minutes. I'm seeing how two different temps impact me because both have a different impact on me. I'm doing it for its mental benefits.
I like 3 minutes between 45 and 50°... yet - before you want is the physical benefits the science shows All you really need is a minute and a half at 55° or lower. Everything else is extra.
Andrew Huberman says research shows significant benefits from 11 minutes total a week. So divide it up how you want. And look it up yourself and decide what is best for you.
Actually 2min is the perfect time anything more is just for your personal bravery I follow Wim Hof I think he’s the best at ice baths and most knowledgeable
I'm doing one minute right now at 60f. It surprisingly gets easier after the first 20 seconds or so, but I'm on a regimen. Next week I'll be at 2 minutes. It's not easy to get cold water in Florida lol.
@@neannecarlosamores1021 I did my second time ever in a cold plunge around 37f and trust me once you get the first time down it gets so much easier after that! I did 5 minutes the first time but the second was 6(
Look up Andrew Huberman he talked about the study being for ice plunges no more then 12 minutes a week. That’s a weird time so I just ground up from 1.7 to 2 whole minutes
The maximum time for an ice bath is 20 minutes. More than that might cause frostbite. After 20 minutes, the blood vessels constrict and the body experiences decreased circulation
Just started my ice baths. First time made it 1:30 before I caved to the pain and got out. Last 3 days i have made it 3 mins. Feel amazing after getting out.
idk if you watch andrew huberman, neuroscientist, but he said to do the exact opposite...move around do some bicycle kicks etc bc it makes it tougher, therefore more dopamine release
I do 10 minutes mostly 2 x daily. First thing in the morning with my cuppa coffee and the last thing I do before I get into bed but sometimes I’m old for seven minutes and the most I’ve ever done is 17. The water is always below 40 degrees. Usually around 35 when entering and my body temp heats it up about 5 degrees. It’s a 6’ tank and I have access to an industrial ice machine very very close to home. Going to install a water chiller though so it won’t warm up and eliminate the need to drag coolers of ice around
anything over 2 minutes is probably just more of a mental exercise. I do 7 minutes at 38°F, but I reckon 2 minutes would provide similar benefit. I believe the only real benefit of staying beyond 2 minutes is exercising discipline.
What temp is the water? I can see there’s ice in it, but can you measure and post? That way we will have a good judge on what temp you’re doing the 5-15 minutes at and can adjust ours from there.
I heard that as a rule you shouldn’t stay longer than 1 minute per degree Celsius. Is there any truth to this ? Reading the comments it doesn’t seem so.
If you did a hypertrophy workout then no ice bath for about 6 hours after according to Dr. Andy Galpin via Huberman Lab podcast, or you could be killing your gains. It's not as detrimental if done after a cardio workout. I just do mine first thing in the morning.
Is there a certain temp the water should be? How cold is cold enough for it to be effective? I want to try it. But if I’m just making myself miserable while doing it wrong? I won’t be a happy camper. 😅
A 15min session is absurd for your average person just trying to reap some benefits. Dr Susanna Solberg did studies examining cold exposure and found 11mins total a week does the job.
How is everyone getting enough ice? Buying bags? Investing in a commercial ice machine? No way am I getting enough from the fridge. l know ice isn't that expensive, but if you're doing it daily I feel like it would add up. Maybe I'm cheap? lol
Lol I Ice bath everyday. Everyone in the comments saying 5 mins is crazy😂😂😂. Bruh after a min or 2 your can hardly feel anything. It still is cold but the hardest part to me is getting in. After I’m in it’s easy to stay for 7 min

Hey yall, i tried this and got the water to about 45 degrees. I lasted a minute. It was crazy. 5 minutes to me sounds more like a long term goal.
