Episode notes
Sauna and Cold Plunge Post-Workout
- Enjoy sauna post-workout to boost growth hormone and recovery, except after weightlifting.
- Avoid ice baths post-weightlifting, as they may hinder muscle growth.
Sauna Blankets
- Consider sauna blankets for sweating and detoxification if access to traditional saunas is limited.
- They offer a compact and easy-to-use sauna experience but may require longer sessions.
Sauna Frequency and Duration
- Aim for 4-7 sauna sessions per week for maximum benefits, with each session lasting at least 20 minutes.
- One session per week is still beneficial, but increasing frequency improves results.
