I've heard its recommended for any exercise over an hour. It works. I will run 10 miles with nothing, but anything over I will hydrate and re-fuel during my run.joec0602https://www.blogger.com/profile/14429238713457667919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258866133701194994.post-12627225142631145882009-04-21T17:47:00.000-04:002009-04-21T17:47:00.000-04:00I really should have listened and tried the ice ba...I really should have listened and tried the ice bath after this weekend!!

Because cold constricts, perhaps you ought to stretch out after an ice bath? <br /><br />You are more brave then me. I can't see myself in an ice bath... and how long before you go into hypothermia?Lumenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01544893334439158146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258866133701194994.post-74319018363552944622009-04-21T12:20:00.000-04:002009-04-21T12:20:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.joec0602https://www.blogger.com/profile/14429238713457667919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258866133701194994.post-2443001394616647902009-04-21T11:43:00.000-04:002009-04-21T11:43:00.000-04:00I've never heard that an ice bath helps with muscl...I've never heard that an ice bath helps with muscle pain...hmmm...very interesting!Cristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15332501442278988873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258866133701194994.post-63072928910996819062009-04-21T11:39:00.000-04:002009-04-21T11:39:00.000-04:00It stops hurting at about 7 minutes, I promise!!! ...It stops hurting at about 7 minutes, I promise!!! I like to scream and yell and curse like a wild lady for the first few minutes. It feels good :) Ha! It seriously feels soooo good afterwards though.

I started trying to ease in, but that is more like torture so now, I just hop in all at once. It's a shock, but it's over quick. Like Joe said said, after the first few minutes, it gets better. Take a book or magazine to read, it helps to take your mind off of it as well.tjohnson1970https://www.blogger.com/profile/08298737396057710380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258866133701194994.post-66499815811439068882009-04-21T10:24:00.000-04:002009-04-21T10:24:00.000-04:00LOL!!

That's the rule. I get a book or magazine and relax. After the 1st 2 mins or so its fine.joec0602https://www.blogger.com/profile/14429238713457667919noreply@blogger.com
