Chris Hemsworth shows off incredible physique in ice bath with Thor reference

Chris Hemsworth had fans all saying the same thing when they noticed an interesting detail about the star’s ice bath.

The Thor actor took replenishment to the next level as he first indulged in a hot, relaxing sauna, before forcing himself into an ice bath.

Chris is almost as well known for his muscles as for his acting, so he knows what he’s talking about when he claims there’s ‘no better way to finish a workout’ – but we think we’ll stick to the jacuzzi in the spa after a sauna and leave the ice baths to him.

The Marvel star took to Instagram on Wednesday where he first shared a snap of the inside of a small wooden sauna, giving his best blue steel to the camera as he sweated it out.

Next up was a video clip of Chris clambering into an ice bath, breathing deeply as the shocking cold water hit his system.

And while it appeared to be a struggle to stay submerged, Chris insists the pros far outweigh the cons.

He wrote there was ‘no better way to finish a workout’ than to ‘combine a sauna with an ice bath.’

It’s ‘an effective way to improve circulation, reduce inflammation, speed up muscle recovery and elevate your mood.’

He explained: ‘The heat from the sauna causes blood vessels to dilate, which improves blood flow and reduces inflammation. The cold from the ice bath causes blood vessels to constrict, which improves circulation and reduces muscle soreness.

‘This contrast between hot and cold temperatures helps to improve overall recovery and reduce the risk of injury.’

Chris’ video proved popular with fans – not least because eagle-eyed followers notice the ice bath was from a company called Odin, and, naturally, the Thor references came thick and fast.

‘Thor is chilling in Odin’s tub,’ one commenter laughed, while another agreed it was a ‘brilliant name.’

‘You see the name on that? That’s my dad’s!’ another joked.

Many said the same thing, excited by the unintentional Marvel reference, with none declaring: ‘Can we talk about thought that he is using an ice bath with the name Odin on the front of it (sic)!’

And the official Odin Ice Bath accounts even got in on the fun, writing: ‘Making me proud son!’
