Anyone else take cold showers?

[The_Goose]

Just started mixing in a few cold showers each week in the mornings and already feeling the benefits. More energy, less stress, and in a better mood overall. Maybe it’s placebo, maybe not, but I’m digging it.

Thoughts?

Only after mowing the lawn. Funny, the only time I like an ice cold seltzer is after mowing the lawn as well.

I'm too much of a pvssy but apparently it helps with testosterone boosting.

Take a phased approach. Makes it much easier. Im about a month in and go straight cold now. Also read about testosterone boosting. I’m not much stronger....yet, but I’ve fucked around and gotten more triple-doubles on the court recently.

So are you a shower or a grower in these cold showers?

First result from the googles says this:

A 1991 study found that cold water stimulation had no effect on levels of testosterone levels, although physical activity did. A 2007 study suggests that brief exposure to cold temperature actually decreases testosterone levels in your blood.Apr 4, 2019

I dont, but I regularly jump in the pool after a workout. The first few times are pretty shocking, but then your body kinda craves it. Its been in the 30’s early in the morning here, so i havent braved it, but when the lows are 40’s or 50’s, no hesitation.

OP, I go thru cycles where I do this. When I first started doing taking cold showers it took a while to get thru the initial shock, but then I adjusted and could stay in for a few minutes. I realized it was an instant own switch.
Read up on Wim Hof breathing, and cold water.
also Ronda Patrick on benefits of cold and heat shock proteins.

You start doing it because of wimhof? I turn the shower down at the end every now and then. I want to start taking some ice baths it just seems like a whole thing.

I definitely dig it. Every once in a while I'll mix in an ice bath too.

How long do you try to stay in the ice bath?

 

[Kenny Orange Powers]

Usually 12 minutes. Then I'll contrast with a hot shower.
