Hormesis is the idea that small, controlled doses of stress can improve health and resilience. It’s not a new concept, think of vaccines, weightlifting, or fasting.

Most people don’t think of sitting in a tub as a fat-burning activity. But cold plunging is different. Unlike passive recovery tools, an ice bath forces your body into action, even if you’re motionless.

Because “just until you can’t take it” is not a training plan.

You don’t need a plunge tub to start building resilience. Just turn the shower dial.

We recommend you start every plunge session the same way: with 10 to 15 minutes of focused breathwork. This is perhaps the most important part of the practice.
