Functional Deepwater Cryo Therapy Freezer: If you just add a half pound of salt for every gallon of water you reduce the freezing point to 26 degrees Fahrenheit and you could still use it as a freezer & store vacuum sealed items without the risk of freezer burn for additional long-terms freezer liquid storage capacity
A few caveats would be good. Like unplug it before you get in to reduce accidentally killing yourself from electrical shock. Also seal the edges of your freezer to stop leakages and also reduce the chance of accidentally dying. Then consider treating and filtering the water somehow. Apart from that thermogenesis us awesome.
How come no ones talks about the extreme pain you feel when you first get in, its like every cell contracts to its smallest state possible and keeps on intensifying. Felt like my nuts were in a vice
that looks relaxing man, we got some bloody hot days down here in NZ thats why mcdonalds sells frozon cokes all year round for only $1 ild love to get a frozen coke and go sit in that thing thing man haha
Can you do this in a normal bathtub with water and ice? Everyone seems to have a freezer or specially built tub but a bathtub is my only option due to my living situation
Of course you can but holy cow what a hassle to get perhaps 30-50lbs of ice for a proper ice bathtub session. Try a few sessions with store ice and see if you love it. Then you can ponder an investment in the convenient and constant access chest freezer!
I looked up a 15 cubic foot one and it would be about $50 per year to run it. I would assume that would be inside in a 70 degree environment, so if it's outside and really hot out, it could be more to run.
it only runs for a couple few hours every 24 hr period so the cost is minimal. The sticker on the side when you get the new unit says something like $67/year but that's running a freezer all the time. Mine's on timer for 2-4 hours per day based on outdoor weather during the year.
How many minutes are you in there for? I do Cold showers from the last 1 year and I live in Canada(North) so it can go cold for the shower as well as the Temp can go upto -40 Degree Celcius in January n Feb...i want to add Ice baths for summer so was wondering how much mins are you in there for for the Ice Bath?
hi Hitesh, I go in there for usually around 4 min. I can go for 6 min on a bet or 3 min if I'm just having an ordinary day. The scientific benefits kick in after 20 sec at 40F water so there is no need to stay in for too long
Love your book The Keto Reset, I find it is the only one you need to understand Keto and diet. Your WARNING: "ALWAYS UNPLUG CHEST FREEZER BEFORE ENTERING (EVEN WITH GFI)" although good advice, is not going to save you from electrocuting yourself if there is an electrical issue which is common with home wiring and not un-common with tools - in your case an appliance. (Which you have now greatly increased the odds of having an electrical issue by putting water in an untested container connected to power). Electrical Code requirements for kitchens and bathrooms are based on the human potential of becoming part of the circuit between water and an electrical source. In the case of a Chest Freezer filled with water (which is a vessel not tested or rated for holding water), your potential for becoming part of that circuit by just touching the chassis (metal outside of the freezer) or the water while plugged in is a real possibility. As a contractor best practice for using a UL-listed, safe power tool (human-tool contact) is to use in-line GFCI protection (a GFCI that plugs into an outlet) Which is safer than using a home GFCI outlet that may or may not be wired correctly and that has no UL requirement to protect from an open-neutral which the corded in-line GFCI does. But using an in-line GFCI is not enough. A GFCI will still power your appliance in the presence of a Hot/Neutral reverse (reverse polarity), which we find in homes old and new all the time but the GFCI WILL NO LONGER PROTECT YOU. So you need to use a simple outlet tester to ensure that outlet tests as "Wired Correctly". Yes, certain conditions do not matter to a GFCI like Open Ground, but if you're not an electrician best practice would be to only plug into something that tests "Wired Correctly". Is your ice bath now safe if it is powered by a properly wired GFCI protected circuit? Probably/Potentially but personally I would not touch the freezer period while it's plugged in and running. Just like I would never use my Ul listed tools outside in the rain even if connected to a properly wired GFCI protected circuit. Because the potential for disaster is real and unnecessary.
can you clarify please? I don't understand your lengthy and informative post. His warning reads to "ALWAYS UNPLUG" meaning stop gap, completely disconnect from the power grid. But you are saying that is not going to save you from getting electrocuted? how? I dont believe Deep chest freezers have capacitors. and any electricity left in the system would be negligible.
@@vxeel It's when it's plugged in if it shorts and your touching it, or just energizes the skin, which happens a lot on mobile homes and boats and kills people.
I prefer the Whiskey barrel,for me the upright position is better for breathing and it’s easy drained for fresh water if your friends like to join you in a session of cold exposure.
When I had kidney stones, worse unrelenting pain ever, only thing that gave me momentary relief was swapping from hot to cold showers ALL DAY. This I did when Percocet failed to give relief. Hardest thing I had ever been through.
Hi Jake, its 15 cu ft freezer from Home Depot . Frigidaire. Yeah when the water gets too cloudy there is a drain on the wall and you have to affix a hose to send the water to desired spot. More hassle if your tub is in garage but outdoors it's no problem. Then refill and turn on the freezer to get water back to desired temp in a couple days. I use an aquarium pump to try and filter the water a bit but it does get cloudy over time
I've done it before workout. I let my body warm up for a half hour first and get the muscles warm slowly. Otherwise it is great! You'll have so much energy.

Hi Brad, Do you keep your chest freezer outside and uncovered? How has it held up to the elements? Any rust? Cheers

What would you recommend to filter it? Do you think an aquarium filter would do?
@@getinthevanihavecandy Aquarium filter is a good start, I think other people use Ozone. Google around for other ice bath set ups.
do you use a filter or aDD anyting to keep the water clean?
The floor of the freezer is strong enough to support the weight?
Is it ok to keep the chest freezer outside? Even at a place like orlando florida with high humidity?
Does it have to sooo cold. Does it have the same benefit at 45 degrees as 37?
I've done this before ,it really did help..

How big is the freezer ? 500 litres ?
Yo why is aly G selling me a freezer
Am i the only one thinking of getting electrocuted 😁😂lol
If worried I don't see why not unplug while using.
most unplug it when getting in
@@jmiller154 unplug every time before entry, even though risk is quite minimal if any...

Yes
Yes I used to do this very thing using bags of ice from McDonald's. Works fine, just not super convienent.

"Cutting edge technology" All of humanity scratches their heads.
Ever used a Kill A Watt to measure how much electricity you're using per month?

great.
Where are you located?
Great video. Question: how about hitting an infrared sauna then hitting the ice, say within a few minutes of exiting the sauna... ?
I've done this with a dry sauna. feels amazing.

cool thanks.
How long do you stay in
3-6 min but you only need a minute at 40F to prompt huge hormonal boost
Hey how big is your chest freezer and how do you drain it to clean the water?
Hi Jake, its 15 cu ft freezer from Home Depot . Frigidaire. Yeah when the water gets too cloudy there is a drain on the wall and you have to affix a hose to send the water to desired spot. More hassle if your tub is in garage but outdoors it's no problem. Then refill and turn on the freezer to get water back to desired temp in a couple days. I use an aquarium pump to try and filter the water a bit but it does get cloudy over time
How often do you change the water (to keep it clean)?
Most setups I have seen have had a cartridge style fish tank filter. Then add hydrogen peroxide to the water to kill bacteria.
Get an ozone generator and a fish filter/pump. Water will last for 5-6 months cristal clear
I'm 6'2"...how many cubic feet is your freezer?
15 cu. ft freezer. My friend Dave is 6'2" and uses his 15 ft freezer every day, plenty of room.
Does your friend have to crouch when plunging in his 15 cu
would it interfere with recovery if i did cold plunge then start working out?
I've done it before workout. I let my body warm up for a half hour first and get the muscles warm slowly. Otherwise it is great! You'll have so much energy.
watch my Unfrozen Caveman Runner for details on this exact subject: ruclips.net/video/fYU0VO_tdI4/видео.html
If that lid was to close you would be in a lot of trouble
that's not a locked lid... you can open it
How do you keep the water from freezing?
Timer on the wall plug. On for 1-2 hours per day keeps it close to freezing but not below.
Right. I like my water at around 38F so it takes 2-4 hours of timer regulated operation per 24 hour period to keep that temp
Keep your chin under the surface.
Love your look ❤
