Add water and ice
For a non athlete we recommend to add 20kg(4 bags from Coles etc) of ice. It will bring water temperature down to ~12 degrees. Add half bags when bath is half full- second half 2min before stepping in.. Remember not to overfill the ice bath. Water level will rise 10-15% as you step in.
WARNING!!!
Do not try Wim Hof or any other breathing methods from Youtube on your first cold plunge…
Just breathe slowly, step in quick and enjoy;))
