Any of you own a Cold Pod or Ice Bath?

Looking at getting one, but need some kind of chiller so I am not constantly adding ice to it. If you have one of these, what kind of chiller do you have?  Thanks.

Been looking at these myself. Looks like the go to brand is Cold Plunge. They stay cold and Joe Rogan endorses them.

If you are on a budget, you can get a Rubbermaid stock tank. They can get a little pricey,  but you want durability and quality. 

For fill, you can use inexpensive plastic water bottles, still sealed, then freeze them. Dump them in. Then refreeze them later. Or when those little blue freezer paks go on sale each year, stock up on them when it's end of summer clearance, and freeze those and dump them in, and you can resuse them. If you don't have one, get a counter top ice maker. You can balance out the ice you need that way. 

This is dependent on your space situation. If you have enough freezer space to accommodate that much stuff at once. 

I have a commercial system. But I know people who use the method above.

Was at a spa that had one of these you sort of walked down into. Was amazing.

Been petitioning my gym to put one in ever since.

Workout - Sauna - Cold Plunge is the combo I think.  Add some years of longevity with that routine.

Cold plunges help with a lot of stuff; raising dopamine is one of them...which might help with libido. It also helps with inflammation, cardiovascular/circulation benefits, etc.

So theoretically it helps to increase libido.  Wasn’t sure if it was intended to increase or decrease it.  The other therapeutic benefits are clear.

Sooo, uhhh…I could maybe help you in this area
