I love cold plunging!

—Of that list, ice bath is my least favorite but I do it from time to time.

Maybe Ill get an ice bath for the backyard. Nothing fancy.

I’ve never tried an ice bath but cold plunging in a lake in the winter is pretty exhilarating.

I ‘ve got a pond I dip into in the winter.

my buddy got me to try cold showers a few weeks ago. to a bit getting used to but i really like them now

Yeah, thats waaay more my speed!
