Or intentional immersion hypothermia for fun!
Picked up a watering trough, pool thermometer, and some tablets to clean it occasionally from Rural King today. Came home, filled it up, and jumped in. 10 minutes at about 50 degrees. Not as cold so you stay in longer. Might do some ice as the outside temp warms up. But this will do for now. Been doing cold showers for a while. But this is no comparison. Uncontrollable shaking set in between 2-3 minutes. Then it was focus and breath to make it to 10. Gonna do shorter ones a few times a week before my workouts and runs.
Actually talked my wife into going in. Well, most of the way in. She got about belly deep at the end and stayed in about 6 minutes getting there. Good start though.
