Recovery doesn’t have to be warm and fuzzy. Sometimes, it’s incredibly cold and has you questioning all your life choices.
The Cold Plunge is a chlorinated, single-person immersion bath set to a head-turning 3°C.
You’ll find it inside the men’s and women’s changing rooms at Gymbox Finsbury Park, located right next to the saunas and showers.
It’s a shock to the system, in the best way possible. It’s intense, intense and yes, it’s included in your membership.
Elite recovery isn’t just for athletes — it’s for anyone pushing their limits in a Hyrox class smashing PBs, or crawling out of a leg day you maybe didn’t warm up for.
Cold Plunge benefits include:
Currently available at Gymbox Finsbury Park
Located in both male and female changing rooms, right beside the sauna and showers.
One person at a time. First come, first freeze.
Start with 30 seconds to 1 minute, then work your way up to 2–3 minutes max.
You’ll feel incredible (and gives you bragging rights at the pub for at least 72 hours).
Nope. Just willing. We scale everything.
Swimwear will do – save your sweaty gym kit for the gym floor (and nudes are a no-no).
Hit the showers. Before and after!
Yes just like a swimming pool, this helps to keep it clean. Always good to wash off in the showers afterwards
Only your ego. It’s intense for the first 10–20 seconds but try to focus on your breathing and trust the process.
Damn straight. All classes and therapies are included in a Gymbox membership.
