Cold baths!!

[Nick]

After much debate in the Cafe concerning Cold Baths I took one when I came home after the Club Run.

I filled the bath and took the Plunge after the Loud screaming and shivering it wasn't to bad and must say I did feel alot better after.


I would recommend it to all budding TV's and Drag artists .

I tried this last year in Majorca-Tamar had recommended it!
But I was never brave enough for total immersion
It certainly brings your legs back to life- alas the other bits have never returned

Nick, my top tip is lay in the bath and then fill it up, it's a lot less shocking!

In a frog-left-in-cold-water-pan-brought-to-boil-without-it-jumping-out way?

Given the choice, I'd rather jump in a full bath though.

Well, it's good enough for Paula Radcliffe, who swears by it, so it's good enough for all of us.

It definitely gets rid of any potential inflammation, and soothes aches if you've got tendinitis already.

It's worth getting used to it now - cold water temperature is cool enough to be effective - however in summer, you may have to add ice in order to get the full benefits..... you've been warned !

Boxers use wheelie bins full of iced water!
