I Cold Plunged EVERYDAY for 3 Months Here s what I learned
00:00so I've been doing ice baths and cold so I've been doing ice baths and cold water exposure for a little over 3 water exposure for a little over 3 water exposure for a little over 3 months now and this last week I've been months now and this last week I've been months now and this last week I've been doing them every single day twice a day doing them every single day twice a day doing them every single day twice a day it's just something that is now part of it's just something that is now part of it's just something that is now part of my daily routine and I plan to continue my daily routine and I plan to continue my daily routine and I plan to continue doing them for the foreseeable future so doing them for the foreseeable future so doing them for the foreseeable future so I definitely have some experience on the I definitely have some experience on the I definitely have some experience on the topic now and I kind of want to talk topic now and I kind of want to talk topic now and I kind of want to talk about why I started doing ice baths my about why I started doing ice baths my about why I started doing ice baths my story how I got into them some tips for story how I got into them some tips for story how I got into them some tips for anyone who wants to get started the anyone who wants to get started the anyone who wants to get started the benefits that I notice personally why I benefits that I notice personally why I benefits that I notice personally why I plan on doing them until the day I die plan on doing them until the day I die plan on doing them until the day I die and also if I recommend them or not and also if I recommend them or not and also if I recommend them or not first I want to talk about why I decided first I want to talk about why I decided first I want to talk about why I decided to start doing ice bass ice bass weren't to start doing ice bass ice bass weren't to start doing ice bass ice bass weren't something that were completely new to me something that were completely new to me something that were completely new to me I remember back when I first started I remember back when I first started I remember back when I first started training Jiu-Jitsu like 10 years ago a training Jiu-Jitsu like 10 years ago a training Jiu-Jitsu like 10 years ago a lot of MMA guys were doing it and lot of MMA guys were doing it and lot of MMA guys were doing it and athletes and Jiu-Jitsu guys would take athletes and Jiu-Jitsu guys would take athletes and Jiu-Jitsu guys would take ice baths I remember seeing videos of ice baths I remember seeing videos of ice baths I remember seeing videos of people jumping in trash cans full of ice people jumping in trash cans full of ice people jumping in trash cans full of ice and people jumping in big troughs and and people jumping in big troughs and and people jumping in big troughs and barrels full of ice but it was mostly barrels full of ice but it was mostly barrels full of ice but it was mostly around recovery and that was the big around recovery and that was the big around recovery and that was the big reason why people would do it and while
01:00reason why people would do it and while reason why people would do it and while it made sense for Recovery it just it made sense for Recovery it just it made sense for Recovery it just didn't seem like something I would be didn't seem like something I would be didn't seem like something I would be willing to do because honestly who wants willing to do because honestly who wants willing to do because honestly who wants to jump in a tub full of ice it just was to jump in a tub full of ice it just was to jump in a tub full of ice it just was something that seemed like a bunch of something that seemed like a bunch of something that seemed like a bunch of Meatheads were doing it like a lot of Meatheads were doing it like a lot of Meatheads were doing it like a lot of Bro Science it wasn't enough for me to Bro Science it wasn't enough for me to Bro Science it wasn't enough for me to want to take the plunge I guess pun want to take the plunge I guess pun want to take the plunge I guess pun intended and then I stumbled across to intended and then I stumbled across to intended and then I stumbled across to huberman Lab podcast and even though he huberman Lab podcast and even though he huberman Lab podcast and even though he talked about all the science and talked about all the science and talked about all the science and benefits behind Cold Water exposure I benefits behind Cold Water exposure I benefits behind Cold Water exposure I wasn't ready to do it but since I wasn't ready to do it but since I wasn't ready to do it but since I started doing a lot of different things started doing a lot of different things started doing a lot of different things that Andrew huberman was recommending I that Andrew huberman was recommending I that Andrew huberman was recommending I decided to do a challenge video and part decided to do a challenge video and part decided to do a challenge video and part of that challenge video was me taking of that challenge video was me taking of that challenge video was me taking legit ice baths I went through a lot of legit ice baths I went through a lot of legit ice baths I went through a lot of trouble planning that video and because trouble planning that video and because trouble planning that video and because I decided to make that commitment and to I decided to make that commitment and to I decided to make that commitment and to do that 7-Day challenge I think in a do that 7-Day challenge I think in a do that 7-Day challenge I think in a weird roundabout way I did that so that weird roundabout way I did that so that weird roundabout way I did that so that I could do the ice baths and not be able I could do the ice baths and not be able I could do the ice baths and not be able to get out of it I did start off by to get out of it I did start off by to get out of it I did start off by taking a few cold showers but the cold taking a few cold showers but the cold taking a few cold showers but the cold showers kind of sucked honestly after showers kind of sucked honestly after showers kind of sucked honestly after you do end up taking an ice bath you
02:00you do end up taking an ice bath you you do end up taking an ice bath you realize how the cold showers just aren't realize how the cold showers just aren't realize how the cold showers just aren't the same and while they do help and have the same and while they do help and have the same and while they do help and have a lot of similar benefits to the ice a lot of similar benefits to the ice a lot of similar benefits to the ice baths they're just not very comparable baths they're just not very comparable baths they're just not very comparable because a cold shower can never get as because a cold shower can never get as because a cold shower can never get as cold as your ice bath can unless you cold as your ice bath can unless you cold as your ice bath can unless you live in a very cold environment but it's live in a very cold environment but it's live in a very cold environment but it's the best alternative if you don't have the best alternative if you don't have the best alternative if you don't have the ability to take an ice bath doing the ability to take an ice bath doing the ability to take an ice bath doing those first few ice baths in my bathtub those first few ice baths in my bathtub those first few ice baths in my bathtub was super intense I feel like David go was super intense I feel like David go was super intense I feel like David go is like you don't know me you don't know is like you don't know me you don't know is like you don't know me you don't know me I can't even begin to describe how me I can't even begin to describe how me I can't even begin to describe how much the mental buildup was for it and much the mental buildup was for it and much the mental buildup was for it and how difficult it was to do those first how difficult it was to do those first how difficult it was to do those first few cold plunges but since that meant I few cold plunges but since that meant I few cold plunges but since that meant I had to refill the tub every day there had to refill the tub every day there had to refill the tub every day there wasn't any way to cover it and try to wasn't any way to cover it and try to wasn't any way to cover it and try to keep it a little bit cold overnight I keep it a little bit cold overnight I keep it a little bit cold overnight I decided to then use a trash can that I decided to then use a trash can that I decided to then use a trash can that I had as my cold plunge for the rest of had as my cold plunge for the rest of had as my cold plunge for the rest of that video which was an idea that came that video which was an idea that came that video which was an idea that came to me because I remember all those Meat to me because I remember all those Meat to me because I remember all those Meat Heads from back when I started jiu-jitsu
03:00Heads from back when I started jiu-jitsu Heads from back when I started jiu-jitsu using a trash can for their ice baths using a trash can for their ice baths using a trash can for their ice baths and I was like well perfect I got this and I was like well perfect I got this and I was like well perfect I got this trash can sitting here in my yard I'm trash can sitting here in my yard I'm trash can sitting here in my yard I'm not doing anything with it it's only had not doing anything with it it's only had not doing anything with it it's only had yard waist in it which is just some yard waist in it which is just some yard waist in it which is just some grass clippings and stuff so I'm like grass clippings and stuff so I'm like grass clippings and stuff so I'm like nothing nasty has really been in there I nothing nasty has really been in there I nothing nasty has really been in there I rinsed it out and I put it in my garage rinsed it out and I put it in my garage rinsed it out and I put it in my garage and filled it up with water and started and filled it up with water and started and filled it up with water and started dumping ice in it and that was what I dumping ice in it and that was what I dumping ice in it and that was what I used for the rest of that video after used for the rest of that video after used for the rest of that video after that video oddly enough I found myself that video oddly enough I found myself that video oddly enough I found myself wanting to do the Ice baths again and wanting to do the Ice baths again and wanting to do the Ice baths again and continue them I've never in a million continue them I've never in a million continue them I've never in a million years thought that I would want to keep years thought that I would want to keep years thought that I would want to keep doing them but I really really really doing them but I really really really doing them but I really really really felt that good after getting out of them felt that good after getting out of them felt that good after getting out of them it's hard to explain if you've never it's hard to explain if you've never it's hard to explain if you've never done them it sounds like bull right it done them it sounds like bull right it done them it sounds like bull right it doesn't sound like it's real it sounds doesn't sound like it's real it sounds doesn't sound like it's real it sounds like somebody trying to sell you on like like somebody trying to sell you on like like somebody trying to sell you on like some magic pill and I will tell you this some magic pill and I will tell you this some magic pill and I will tell you this if they sold that feeling that you get if they sold that feeling that you get if they sold that feeling that you get after getting out of an ice bath in a after getting out of an ice bath in a after getting out of an ice bath in a pill form it would be one of the best pill form it would be one of the best pill form it would be one of the best drugs in the world if you've ever looked drugs in the world if you've ever looked drugs in the world if you've ever looked into the research behind it and you've into the research behind it and you've into the research behind it and you've listened to huberman talk about all the listened to huberman talk about all the listened to huberman talk about all the benefits and what it does to your body benefits and what it does to your body benefits and what it does to your body it gives you adrenaline without the
04:00it gives you adrenaline without the it gives you adrenaline without the stress hormone it gives you dopamine it stress hormone it gives you dopamine it stress hormone it gives you dopamine it gives you energy it makes you feel good gives you energy it makes you feel good gives you energy it makes you feel good it helps with swelling inflammation it it helps with swelling inflammation it it helps with swelling inflammation it helps activate Brown fat and helps you helps activate Brown fat and helps you helps activate Brown fat and helps you burn fat that's what it does and you burn fat that's what it does and you burn fat that's what it does and you literally feel it immediately it's literally feel it immediately it's literally feel it immediately it's actually pretty miserable when you do it actually pretty miserable when you do it actually pretty miserable when you do it but the benefits and how you feel but the benefits and how you feel but the benefits and how you feel afterwards are totally worth it and you afterwards are totally worth it and you afterwards are totally worth it and you feel great I've never once in the last 3 feel great I've never once in the last 3 feel great I've never once in the last 3 months of doing the ice bath have been months of doing the ice bath have been months of doing the ice bath have been like ooh I can't wait to get in the ice like ooh I can't wait to get in the ice like ooh I can't wait to get in the ice bath but I have felt like I can't wait bath but I have felt like I can't wait bath but I have felt like I can't wait till I get out of the ice bath and feel till I get out of the ice bath and feel till I get out of the ice bath and feel as good as I do when I get out of it as good as I do when I get out of it as good as I do when I get out of it that's the thing I can't wait for the that's the thing I can't wait for the that's the thing I can't wait for the buildup is usually still the same buildup is usually still the same buildup is usually still the same although it's not as bad as it was when although it's not as bad as it was when although it's not as bad as it was when I first started them but now that I got I first started them but now that I got I first started them but now that I got my cold plune set up and it's proper and my cold plune set up and it's proper and my cold plune set up and it's proper and it's at the right temperature that I it's at the right temperature that I it's at the right temperature that I wanted every time it's 45° I can tell wanted every time it's 45° I can tell wanted every time it's 45° I can tell you that like getting into it still you that like getting into it still you that like getting into it still sucks and it's still cold and it's still sucks and it's still cold and it's still sucks and it's still cold and it's still miserable for however long I'm in there miserable for however long I'm in there miserable for however long I'm in there but the minute I am out it is so good
05:00but the minute I am out it is so good but the minute I am out it is so good and it's not just because oh I'm out I'm and it's not just because oh I'm out I'm and it's not just because oh I'm out I'm glad to be out of the cold water I feel glad to be out of the cold water I feel glad to be out of the cold water I feel great now that's not it maybe you don't great now that's not it maybe you don't great now that's not it maybe you don't feel the inflammation and Recovery stuff feel the inflammation and Recovery stuff feel the inflammation and Recovery stuff immediately but you do feel the dopamine immediately but you do feel the dopamine immediately but you do feel the dopamine you do feel the adrenaline you do feel you do feel the adrenaline you do feel you do feel the adrenaline you do feel the energy I've been doing them first the energy I've been doing them first the energy I've been doing them first thing in the morning when I get up and thing in the morning when I get up and thing in the morning when I get up and it's like if a 5-hour Energy and an it's like if a 5-hour Energy and an it's like if a 5-hour Energy and an espresso shot had a baby that's what espresso shot had a baby that's what espresso shot had a baby that's what it's like that's how much energy I feel it's like that's how much energy I feel it's like that's how much energy I feel immediately and there's no Crash from it immediately and there's no Crash from it immediately and there's no Crash from it like it's just natural energy boost and like it's just natural energy boost and like it's just natural energy boost and it's so good I'm getting caught up it's so good I'm getting caught up it's so good I'm getting caught up talking about how awesome they are but talking about how awesome they are but talking about how awesome they are but have no doubt they suck also like they have no doubt they suck also like they have no doubt they suck also like they suck being in there I'm not going to lie suck being in there I'm not going to lie suck being in there I'm not going to lie about that part being in cold water is about that part being in cold water is about that part being in cold water is not fun but it feels great afterwards a not fun but it feels great afterwards a not fun but it feels great afterwards a couple things that I noticed when I couple things that I noticed when I couple things that I noticed when I first started too was that reducing first started too was that reducing first started too was that reducing friction is very important making sure friction is very important making sure friction is very important making sure that you have a place that you can do that you have a place that you can do that you have a place that you can do them in the same spot every time making them in the same spot every time making them in the same spot every time making sure you don't have to refill a tub sure you don't have to refill a tub sure you don't have to refill a tub every time those little things are every time those little things are every time those little things are really important ice is really expensive
06:00really important ice is really expensive really important ice is really expensive for the one week that I did it was for the one week that I did it was for the one week that I did it was almost 100 bucks worth of ice on the almost 100 bucks worth of ice on the almost 100 bucks worth of ice on the last day I did 10 bags of ice in the last day I did 10 bags of ice in the last day I did 10 bags of ice in the trash can I got it down into the 30s it trash can I got it down into the 30s it trash can I got it down into the 30s it was miserably cold and I don't suggest was miserably cold and I don't suggest was miserably cold and I don't suggest that you go that cold to start and that you go that cold to start and that you go that cold to start and honestly I've gone that cold and I don't honestly I've gone that cold and I don't honestly I've gone that cold and I don't really see the difference between 35 and really see the difference between 35 and really see the difference between 35 and 45 in how I feel afterwards it just 45 in how I feel afterwards it just 45 in how I feel afterwards it just hurts more when it's colder so I found hurts more when it's colder so I found hurts more when it's colder so I found like my sweet spot so if you don't have like my sweet spot so if you don't have like my sweet spot so if you don't have at least a proper setup it can be a big at least a proper setup it can be a big at least a proper setup it can be a big pain especially if you're trying to do pain especially if you're trying to do pain especially if you're trying to do it daily and that's another thing I it daily and that's another thing I it daily and that's another thing I ended up using a chest freezer that I ended up using a chest freezer that I ended up using a chest freezer that I had and I bought these little mini had and I bought these little mini had and I bought these little mini bottles of water and I would freeze them bottles of water and I would freeze them bottles of water and I would freeze them overnight then use them to cool down the overnight then use them to cool down the overnight then use them to cool down the water in my little tub that I bought I water in my little tub that I bought I water in my little tub that I bought I got rid of the trash can cuz that wasn't got rid of the trash can cuz that wasn't got rid of the trash can cuz that wasn't as practical as I wanted it to be it was as practical as I wanted it to be it was as practical as I wanted it to be it was pretty big and it was in the middle of pretty big and it was in the middle of pretty big and it was in the middle of my garage and it smelled like grass and my garage and it smelled like grass and my garage and it smelled like grass and trees and dirt so I didn't really want trees and dirt so I didn't really want trees and dirt so I didn't really want to keep using that so I ended up buying to keep using that so I ended up buying to keep using that so I ended up buying this cold pod thing that was small and I this cold pod thing that was small and I this cold pod thing that was small and I fit in it perfectly and that became my
07:00fit in it perfectly and that became my fit in it perfectly and that became my ice bath for the last few months but I ice bath for the last few months but I ice bath for the last few months but I was freezing these water bottles was freezing these water bottles was freezing these water bottles overnight and then throwing them in overnight and then throwing them in overnight and then throwing them in there but since I started doing them there but since I started doing them there but since I started doing them daily it was hard for me to get those to daily it was hard for me to get those to daily it was hard for me to get those to freeze fast enough it's a difficult freeze fast enough it's a difficult freeze fast enough it's a difficult thing to do if you don't have a proper thing to do if you don't have a proper thing to do if you don't have a proper setup but cold plunges are super setup but cold plunges are super setup but cold plunges are super expensive legit setups are like $3 expensive legit setups are like $3 expensive legit setups are like $3 $4,000 or more so it's one of those $4,000 or more so it's one of those $4,000 or more so it's one of those things where I wouldn't recommend going things where I wouldn't recommend going things where I wouldn't recommend going out and buying a plunge right away or out and buying a plunge right away or out and buying a plunge right away or even building your own until you do even building your own until you do even building your own until you do enough ice back so that you know that enough ice back so that you know that enough ice back so that you know that it's something that you're going to it's something that you're going to it's something that you're going to continue to do so I want to get more continue to do so I want to get more continue to do so I want to get more into like the things that I personally into like the things that I personally into like the things that I personally noticed I know that I mentioned it a noticed I know that I mentioned it a noticed I know that I mentioned it a little bit I talked about all the things little bit I talked about all the things little bit I talked about all the things that Andrew huberman has mentioned in that Andrew huberman has mentioned in that Andrew huberman has mentioned in his podcast about cold water exposure I his podcast about cold water exposure I his podcast about cold water exposure I also watched the episode with Dr Susana also watched the episode with Dr Susana also watched the episode with Dr Susana somberg on there which is the leading somberg on there which is the leading somberg on there which is the leading expert in the field of cold water expert in the field of cold water expert in the field of cold water exposure and she did a lot of research exposure and she did a lot of research exposure and she did a lot of research behind this stuff and I don't want to behind this stuff and I don't want to behind this stuff and I don't want to regurgitate their stuff I mentioned some regurgitate their stuff I mentioned some regurgitate their stuff I mentioned some of the things that it does like of the things that it does like of the things that it does like activates Brown fat it gives you
08:00activates Brown fat it gives you activates Brown fat it gives you adrenaline without the stress hormone adrenaline without the stress hormone adrenaline without the stress hormone cortisol it gives you dopamine increase cortisol it gives you dopamine increase cortisol it gives you dopamine increase it gives you energy it helps with it gives you energy it helps with it gives you energy it helps with recovery and inflammation and all those recovery and inflammation and all those recovery and inflammation and all those things right that's the research and the things right that's the research and the things right that's the research and the science behind it but I want to talk science behind it but I want to talk science behind it but I want to talk about like the things I noticed about like the things I noticed about like the things I noticed personally it has greatly improve my personally it has greatly improve my personally it has greatly improve my mental health I can tell you that my mental health I can tell you that my mental health I can tell you that my mood and how I feel when I get out of mood and how I feel when I get out of mood and how I feel when I get out of those things my mood is elevated I'm those things my mood is elevated I'm those things my mood is elevated I'm inlightened it sounds like I inlightened it sounds like I inlightened it sounds like I know it does it really does but I feel know it does it really does but I feel know it does it really does but I feel so so good when I'm done with them and so so good when I'm done with them and so so good when I'm done with them and like I said if they sold this as a pill like I said if they sold this as a pill like I said if they sold this as a pill it would be the bestselling drug on the it would be the bestselling drug on the it would be the bestselling drug on the planet it'd be at every health food planet it'd be at every health food planet it'd be at every health food store it would be number one on Amazon store it would be number one on Amazon store it would be number one on Amazon like it's so so good also I've been like it's so so good also I've been like it's so so good also I've been working out a lot so I don't know how working out a lot so I don't know how working out a lot so I don't know how much of the ice bass have played into much of the ice bass have played into much of the ice bass have played into activating my brown fats and helping me activating my brown fats and helping me activating my brown fats and helping me burn fat because some of the research burn fat because some of the research burn fat because some of the research that has been quoted around the ice bath that has been quoted around the ice bath that has been quoted around the ice bath is people losing body fat from doing is people losing body fat from doing is people losing body fat from doing them I am in the best shape of my life them I am in the best shape of my life them I am in the best shape of my life right now now I'm going to be 39 this
