Dear Diary,
The Kinos has arrived.
It is an auto-filtering cold plunge pool that can also heat up if you want a warm bath.
It comes with a pump for emptying the pool out, and it can keep itself warm in cold weather, so it can be “outside” as long as the main unit is kept safe and dry.
I do not intend to try it out yet because I am not yet ready - I need to acclimate myself with cold showers first and do regular breathing. I also need a “freeze buddy” because it is safer and more fun with a co-conspirator, don’t want to get a heart attack while doing it for the first time. Already working on that, got some candidates.
Should be a fun winter.

today was the last hyperbaric chamber treatment. I cannot say I will miss it - it took 4 hours out of each day I went there, and I did not see noticeable benefits. However, it was super interesting that when I did just one round of Wim Hof breathing in the chamber, I was able to hold my breath for 5 minutes - and I did not have to inhale yet, I only did it because I ran out of time and the decompression started. Interesting stuff.
