Cold showers really work

[Flacko]

I’ve always thought the cold shower thing was a bit of a meme. But I decided to hop on. I’ve showered twice a day about 10 mine each time in freezing cold water. Doing it as a way to build discipline. It has for sure made me more productive. I feel as though you get “shocked” into the present and focus yourself for the day.

Anyone else take cold showers?

i've tried once and it was quite great, they say it increases dopamine levels and it's much healthier for hairs, skin and so on...

I don't do it daily or use it for discipline, but whenever I'm losing focus and can't get back on track with work I jump in a freezing cold shower for like 60 seconds. The shock gets my mind back on track for sure

It's especially useful for me in the morning. Cold showers help me fully wake up.

The best medicine for me
Is a shower .

It helps to cure:

Headaches
Migraines
Hangovers

It improves :

Motivation
Productivity
Efficiency

Whenever I’m grinding in a middle of a project (16 hour days) I jump in the shower every 3-4 hours and come out 100 % productive

Watch the documentary "Here comes the pain" that shows Brock Lesnar taking Ice Bath after a heavy workout.

Some say cold showers help boost testosterone...

I do them sometimes, usually I still like warm shower, but sometimes I end it with a cold shower. I also like to jump into cold water after sauna or pour a bucket of cold water after getting hot in sauna.

Contrast temperature water procedures are good for us humans

I heard it is not good for building muscles is that true ?

Yea, Ive been taking only cold showers for around 2 years now, Im 100% used to it now, so it doesnt bother me at all. Its a bit tough in the winter when my flat is cold and the water is extremely cold because the house is old and the weather is cold but i manage to push through haha.
Also used it as a way to build discipline and apparently its good for your cardiovascular system.

The main benefit comes from the breathing.

So much this. You have to control your breathing to be able to handle the cold.

I have started doing cold showers last winter so the coldest shower water was painful, it helped me build up and haven't had warm shower ever since.

Summer time cold showers are weak though, feels like any swim in a river or a lake.

I stopped having dandruffs and any skin problem overall, i also feel more clean and radiating freshness that thermal shock gives for hours

I’ve often thought about it. But hot showers are just so nice

 

[mickyfu]

I get cold showers quite often because of the humidity, and trust me, there ain't anything special about it. But then again I'm not looking for any benefits so I don't get the ye olde placebo effect.

 

[Tenebra23]

I can't get an hot or warm shower anymore lol, srsly. It's been 1.4 years of cold showers and now i just hate warm or hot water.

It's good tho, It changed everything about my life: from skin and hairs to mood, posture, breathing, willpower, energy and more

They are a fucking miracle lol, i don't get sick since the day i started this habit

 

[Writerly]

I know all the health benefits that go along with it, but, I somehow always fail to muster the willpower. I always say to myself that I'll start doing it, but the warm water is just too alluring.
