</p> Good morning from Cornwall</p> </p> Whats all this about then ?</p> I've always been told to be careful not to fall in the canal as hyperthermia will take hold and it won't be good for me.</p> Since I was a kid I've always been warned not to jump into a reservoir for a swim in the summer for the same reason - the sudden cold will kill me.</p> Now I've been advised to jump into an ice bath after a work-out or long bike ride. Are they trying to finish me off are shall I give it a try ? I'm suspicious as I've seen what it does to the England cricketers.</p>
no you will feel the benefit. the ice water breaks down all the lactic acid in your muscles built up during exercise which means they wont ache after
