Have you ever trained really hard or played backyard football with some friends and your legs were extremely sore? So sore that you couldn’t walk normal the next day. I often found myself in this situation and I began to get sick and tired of having sore legs after cycling and running, so I tried something a little different than the normal ice pack or hot tub routine. I took an ice bath. All you have to do is get about 15-20 lbs of ice from your local 7-11 or supermarket, fill your bath tube with cold water and then dump the ice in the water. Once the ice is mixed, it is time to hop in. At first it is extremely uncomfortable, but give it a minute and you will soon get used to the chill. Stay submerged in the bath up to your waist for at least 10 minutes. A good ice bath will ensure quick recovery. Give it a try and you can kiss your sore legs goodbye.
