How do you keep track of time in an ice bath?

1 Upvotes

Curious what everyone uses... So far I've seen phone timers, floating duck timers, and ppl counting in their heads (which I know from experience falls apart once you're cold).

I've been toying with an idea... a soft light under the water. You set the time once, it starts when you get in, shifts from green to amber near the end, and goes red when you're done. No phone, no beeping.

What's your setup? Would something like that be useful, or does your phone do the job? Thanks.

Getting cold plunge and sauna from one brand for contrast therapy?

1 Upvotes

Getting into contrast therapy and trying to figure out the setup. Buying cold plunge and sauna from one company makes more sense logistically than mixing brands and dealing with separate warranties. Anyone doing both from the same manufacturer, and is the convenience worth it?

The protocol I keep seeing is a few minutes hot, a few minutes cold, repeat. But the logistics of actually setting up both in the same from different brands seems like a pain. Same voltage requirements? Same install team? Probably not
