  • Question
    Could I train and then take an ice bath the next day?

    Community Answer
    Take ice baths immediately after training. Generally, you should take an ice bath within 30 minutes of the end of your training session. Some gyms may offer ice baths in their facilities. Alternatively, you can keep a bag of ice at home in your freezer for when you need to rest your muscles.

    Why do you feel so could hours after taking an ice bath?

    Ice baths significantly lower your core body temperature, making you feel cold for longer. Layer up with warm clothing and a blanket after an ice bath to get your body back to its normal temperature.
