According to this Andrew Huberman Ice Bath guy, there's one thing that is sabotaging your ice bath benefits. 9/10 of you are definitely doing this wrong.
Which is okay... Because in this case, wrong is so much better than right...
What could it be? Something so important that some random dude on the internet made a whole video about it?
Movement (and breaking the thermal barrier, or thermal sheath).
Because we wouldn't want Huberman to tell us, "That's the wimpy way to go through it."
You see, when you take an ice bath or cold plunge, your body builds a little protective thermal layer around your skin. And this little thermal barrier (sheath) prevents your body from soaking up ALL the possible ice bath benefits.
So, if you're like me and you'd rather relax, meditate, and focus in your ice bath - you're doing it WRONG! At least according to Andrew Huberman and the rest of the internet gurus.
So instead of justifying my way into cold plunge greatness, I decided to give it the ol' college try. And try we did. Super try hard here.
I moved about as much as possible, without spilling all of my water.
Was it fun? Sure.
Did I end up liking it? Kinda.
Do I think it really changed the "benefit" I get from plunging? Heck to the no.
Will I do it again. Prolly.
Will I go this crazy? Prolly not.
I put the Huberman plunge to the test, and I ended up enjoying it. I got a huge boost of energy, mostly because my ice bath ended up being a freaking workout. 3:00 swimming WOD??
I hope you had fun with this one. Don't take me too seriously here - I'm just trying to find fun ways to turn my short form content into something longer and a bit more entertaining.
