Not since I stopped playing football. And we only stood in tanks that were just over your knees.you had to watch out for guys that would fill them up a little to give you a freeze… Dirty rookie tricks! |

Ice cold showers regularly... the key to life! Improved recovery, circulation, attitude, energy, skin and hair health, boosts the immune system and zest for living. Remember--shrinkage is temporary, health is forever.

I do the contrasts with the steam room and the cold showers. They seem to help in recovery.

These really do help with recovery and feel good once you become accustomed to them (which you will). I am surprised no one has posted this demo yet. Better late than never. |

Here in New Hampshire I have a great set up in the winter. My 8 year old son
does it with me. We have an outdoor hot tub and we jump from the hot tub into the snow and back into the tub. Repeat. Great stuff. Bill |
