Episode notes
An ice bath or cold water immersion up to the neck with limbs in, if for one to five minutes, is a completely different stimulus than in the cold shower. So in general, i would say, don't do this, cold showers. Strength is not as clear. There are some data to show it, octual block strength adaptations, but because of what we talked about earlier, the mechanisms and the drivers are different. And so i don't think it's as big a concern a for strength development. Though i would still generally say can get away with staying out of the ice immediately after the workout, and you can at least wait a few hours. That's the better approach.
