Bodybuilding as a sport is all about building a habit for one’s lifestyle that would yield individuals long-term success only if they are consistent with their endeavors. It thus requires bodybuilders to get inspired by one another and construct their own routines. With the advancement of social media into a chief element of life, more often than not, bodybuilders and fitness influencers start or follow varying trends.

In a recent viral Instagram reel posted by @plunge, Bill Burr is featured talking about the Icebath challenge. From the very beginning of the video, he had shown extreme dislike towards the issue he was going to address. He talked about the futility of pouring ice and filling a tube. Then he went ahead to suggest a rather rational alternative. He remarked, “You are not training for the Olympics. You were on a f******* elliptical. Alright? Just put the shower water on cold. That will help you with your inflammation”.
