Roll, your last two digits will decide for how many days you will take cold showers.

Afraid to take the plunge? Start warm, and gradually get acclimated to lower and lower temperatures.
There is a technique where you can keep changing between very hot and very cold water. This empties your lymphatic nodes, and makes them less swollen. Which can be good if you have that problem.

i shower cold for almost 2 weeks now, i showered warm/hot my whole life and never thought that i would go cold but it was a good decision. but most of the time i do contrast showers, right after training they are worth gold.
>tfw heating system broke and had no heat in the dead of winter for like a week >had to take literally freezing cold showers in a freezing cold apartment Only thing it did for me was make me angry all day.
Sebastian Walker
sounds like a whole lot of bullshit. it just feels nice to take cold showers, especially after lifting
Jose Howard
How cold should it be? Sometimes I feel dizzy after taking a cold shower. Is it because it's too cold?
Ian Bailey
I am on day 6 of cold showers. Makes me feel like he-man.

Also saves water due to no lollygagging.

It doesn't make you superhuman, but for me the effects are noticeable. I can vouch that I've had positive effects from cold showers. Maybe you don't go cold enough, you need to make it very stressful. And when you get used to a temperature, go colder until you get that deep breathing and urge to step out again.
It's especially good for your brain in these modern times where we don't usually meet stressful situations. Introducing cold showers can be the replacement for that experience we would have gotten a million years ago where we might have needed to wade through an icy river every now and then. Short and stressful situations are good for my brain and mental health.
The colder the better, but if you feel dizzy then you should probably chill out and go with a bit warmer. Passing out in the shower is obviously bad and dangerous, so go a bit warmer for safety so that you're comfortable. Your dizziness might be a sign of something wrong too, be wary of what you eat and your health and make sure you stay hydrated. So stay safe with a slighty warmer temperature, maybe you'll even get used to it after some time and be able to continue.

I've had to shower in cold water before, it never felt beneficial. What positive effects did you actually see that can't be categorized as just a feeling?

Bacne disappeared
Michael Hall
My skin and hair improved. My face became less puffy. And I didn't even remember until the other user said so but yes my bacne has disappeared completely, and I had that problem for a very long while. That's the visual stuff. And I don't have as big problems with my neck and shoulders but it could be the doing of my mobility work only.

I grew two inches thanks to cold showers, add it to the inphographic.
Is there a time you should wait before taking a cold shower after exercise? I feel like there should be a return to normalcy before you shock your body with the cold water. Any thoughts?

thank you

>>Anti-inflammatory and good for joints >>Great for muscle recovery Aren't hot showers good to relax the muscles which helps with recovery?
Yeah no shit, you know you can look things up for yourself too. But overall warm showers dries you out and makes you sluggish. There's a bunch of good things about an increased blood circulation. It increases because your veins expand with the heat, so there's more flow

Cold showers help a ton. I used to have a bad habit of staying in the shower for too long because the hot water was soothing. Now I never spend more than 7 minutes taking a shower. Saves a lot of time.

a couple of years ago i had a housemate who would take like 2 showers a day, sometimes 3, for like an hour at a time. i don't know if she was in the shower the entire time but yeah she spent 2 hours daily in the shower on average. her skin was fucking horrible and puffy.
i've heard it's bad for your skin to shower even once per day
Adrian Baker
What effects have you seen? This makes sense but i hate cold water

This and also mental acuity and feeling better, good focus, stronger willpower, less depressed, more stoic because you feel like a damn viking after standing in painfully cold water for eight minutes without shivering or twitching or caring. When I started out I actualy manically laughed and smiled during my showers I guess some weird response to the stress, but being forced to laugh like that actually made me feel better. I'm relaxed and chill and muscles feel good

For everyone who thinks cold showers are unbearable: I started cold showers and I could hardly be in the water for 5 seconds and any longer than that I was breathing frantically. After a lot of practice (and swimming in my pool during december) I now take cold showers every day and can casually wash my hair, shave, and take a 5 min shower in the coldest possible water. My water isn’t cold enough anymore
Christian Robinson
>mental acuity and feeling better, good focus, stronger willpower, less depressed, more stoic because you feel like a damn viking i thought meditation was the best , but cold showers took me to a whole new level they are both great ! but the cold is amazing !
I always do hot showers into cold showers (as low as it goes) at the end in the warmer months, it's refreshing. I bet most of the benefits being stated are bullshit except the ones with muscle soreness after exercise.
I do it the other way around in the winter.
