In college I also used the ice baths after the hot practices especially during two-a-days. They were just large gray plastic trash cans full of ice water. After showering, you would get in as deep as you could take for as long as you could take. Most of us would go down to a certain point that I think everyone can relate to and stay in for about a minute or two. One guy would go in to mid-stomach and just sit there smiling. But then again he did later play in the NFL for about 6 years. It does make your legs feel better by getting that heat out of there.
