First pic is in the sauna and gives you an idea of how just sitting there can be beneficial.
Second pic was taken immediately after leaving the sauna and third pic is after the cold plunge session is over. (4 min session) You can see how it lowers your heart rate.
Even on days as cold as today I will still plunge because of how much it benefits me.
Here is my personal list of how doing contrast treatments benefits me
Sauna ⤵️
• relieves stress
• burn calories
• surprisingly rejuvenating
Cold plunge ⤵️
• surprisingly relaxes me
• mental clarity
• helps me sleep even better than I already do
I’m well over 100 plunges since June and what I’ve noticed the most is how my resting HR has lowered during sleep. This is tracked with an app which also shows my restorative sleep has improved.
Restorative sleep consists of your REM, deep and core. If 33% of your sleep is restorative than you’re really recovering quite well. Most of the time my restorative sleep is 36-38% on average, which means my training can now be top tier.
