If there's something professional athletes take seriously, it’s their post-workout recovery.

We’ve seen it all from ice bucket baths, compression therapy on the legs, and even sauna machines.

But of course, none of that is enough for J.J. Watt. Go big or go home, right?

Well, it looks like he was able to do both as he posted the following photos online of him doing an ice bath in what appears to be his home state of Wisconsin. 

We’re warning you, you may suddenly feel a shiver down your spine looking at these photos because we sure did.

Joined by both his brothers T.J. and Derek along with others, J.J. and his crew chain sawed an opening into the ice for them to each have an ice bath in the freshwater. 

Apparently, the removal of the giant chunk of ice was a workout in itself. 

Great on J.J. and the rest of the crew who had the guts to follow through with this, because we gladly would like to decline for the sake of getting frostbite all over us.

We think we’ll just stick with some sort of post-workout smoothie or protein bar.​
