When it comes to health and wellness, athletes and fitness enthusiasts should always be on the lookout for the best bio-hacking, health-boosting and recovery routines, kan? If you’re one of those looking for a new routine to increase your odds of winning at health, fitness and life in general, then here’s how you can take that plunge!
Enjoy better and improved mental and physical health with the Warrior Plunge Ice Bath systems!
More than just an ice bath experience, the Warrior Plunge combines cold water immersion, the Wim Hof breathing method (more on this later!) and even community-building to help you get the full potential of cold therapy. Here’s how you can win each day by starting it with a Warrior Plunge!
But first, what is the Warrior Plunge?
Warrior Plunge is the brainchild of David Lai, entrepreneur by day, magician by night (or sometimes both at once)!
Having gone through a very personal loss in 2021, David went through depression, which in turn led to physical changes including extreme weight gain, hair loss and worsening skin health. Looking to fix this, David found the magic of ice baths as practised by Tony Robbins and Wim Hof (The Iceman) and his physical and mental condition improved immensely within 8 months!
Having discovered the numerous benefits of ice baths, he also found that large amounts of ice can be very impractical and thought up the idea of making an at-home ice bath system for easier ice bathing, dubbing it the Warrior Plunge!

Through the Warrior Plunge, David got together with his friends within the entertainment industry (including Harith Iskander and Amber Chia!) to carry out ice baths on a weekly basis, eventually forming their very own community that has now spanned the Southeast Asian region!
Working together with his close friend Piyachai Teo (the only certified Wim Hof instructor in Malaysia), the weekly classes teach people how to use cold therapy the proper way.
So why should you go for ice baths?
Ice baths, also known as cold water immersion (CWI), are a tried and true practice done to aid recovery and promote overall well-being. Here are the benefits of an ice bath:
- Improved circulation: Ice baths boost your blood flow, improve tissue performance, and improve your health.
- Muscle recovery: Cold water immersion accelerates healing, reduces soreness, and boosts performance after an intense workout session.
- Mental sharpness: Beyond physical benefits, the process boosts your cognitive function, focus, mental clarity, and even your sleep quality.
- Immunity boost: Regular cold exposure can increase the production of white blood cells to fight off infections and maintain overall health.
- Stress relief: The intense cold promotes the release of endorphins which lower your stress level and combat mental issues such as anxiety and depression.
- Skin health: The cold helps to boost overall skin health and makes you look younger and refreshed.
- Weight loss: Ice baths stimulate weight loss by causing your blood vessels to constrict. This process forces your body to burn fat for heat, leading to weight loss.
Here’s why the Warrior Plunge should be your go-to cold therapy solution!
While the benefits of ice baths are really cool (no pun intended!), setting one up is way easier said than done. Luckily, that’s where the Warrior Plunge comes in! Here are the key features of a Warrior Plunge kit:
- Durable design: Made from sturdy materials including DWF, PVC, and premium double-stitched fabric, the Warrior Plunge kit is built to last for years to come.
- Easy to use: The system is easy to set up and use, making it simple to integrate into your daily routine, regardless of how active you are.
- Portable and convenient: Thanks to its compact and portable design, the Warrior Plunge kit can be used indoors or outdoors. Choose your own recovery regimen environment!
- Warranty and maintenance: Warrior Plunge comes with a 1-year warranty and has a local team for any maintenance and support!
“But how exactly do I use the Warrior Plunge kit?”
As mentioned earlier, the mechanics for the Warrior Plunge are super simple and straightforward! Here’s how you set it up:
- Fill the tub with water (and ice, if you’re up for a REAL challenge!)
- Adjust the temperature to your comfort level (5-10 degrees Celcius)
- Immerse yourself for 3-5 minutes
Here are other things to note about the Warrior Plunge:
- Beginners should go for shorter sessions and gradually increase the duration as the body adapts to the cold.
- The best times to go for a plunge are after intense workouts or on days when you need an extra boost in recovery. The Warrior Plunge can be used for pre-workout for strength training days too.
- You’re also recommended to use the Wim Hof breathing method (named after “The Iceman” who is world-famous for his ability to withstand low temperatures) which consists of 30 strong inhalations via the nose and 30 relaxed exhalations through the mouth.
- For optimal results, you should go for a Wim Hof – Ice Bath and Breathwork Event with the guidance of a trained instructor. The Warrior Plunge has weekly breathwork and ice-bath activities for the public and is perfect as a family activity for all ages!
You’ll also stand to enjoy these perks when you purchase a kit.
