It’s my mission to make cold water accessible for everyone.
How it all started…
John hated cold water (and weather) as a kid. In 2014 a friend enticed him to attend a weekend workshop with Wim Hof. He went, despite his initial resistance, and it was life-changing… but not right away.
It wasn’t until 2017- after nearly three years of brutal insomnia and investing thousands of dollars on supplements, treatments, therapies, and devices that did nothing to help- that John discovered a hundred pounds of ice in a bathtub full of water a few hours before bed gave him an incredible night’s sleep.
He quickly realized that hauling ice was going to get expensive pretty quickly (not to mention time consuming), and the $8,000+ commercially made cold plunges available back then were out of his reach financially.
Later that same year John bought a chest freezer and turned it into a cold plunge- but not without a some major disasters and a lot of trial and error along the way.
After getting a dialed in John started helping other people create DIY cold plunges. He started a dedicated Facebook group in 2018, wrote a book on the subject in 2019, and since then has helped countless thousands of people create their own DIY cold plunge.
While John has a passion for problem-solving and figuring things out, and creating innovative solutions, his deepest satisfaction comes from hearing all the incredible life-changing results that cold water brings to the people he gets to help.
