they still have their benefits tho and give me joy in life but the kick is not as great as when i started
lol not sure I believe that. But start off Luke warm for a few mins then go cold. You get a kick alright.

Cold showers make you feel invigorated in the summer. Fuk that chit in the winter.

No fap isnt what you are looking for. Its no porn that is more important. Ejaculating regularly has health benefits.

So I'm in a debacle.

I take blazing hot showers because I have really stiff upper back muscles and its supposed to relieve muscle tension, the steam is good for your pores, and it just feels good over all.

BUT NOW, after reading this thread it sounds like cold showers are good for muscle tension, good for the skin, and you "feel better" over all.

So which faucking shower is better, cold or hot?

I love cold showers.

I don't do it for any of the supposed benefits. I mainly love the way it wakens me up and refreshes me. I just can't leave a shower when it's warm. Warm water just makes me feel lazy and low energy. Cold water is like COME AT ME BRAH FUUUAARRRK and I'm hyped to start my day.

I'm used to it now and wish I could make it colder, but I already use the maximum coldest setting in my shower with zero warm water.

I want dat dere bone chilling freeze.

alternating between extremely hot and cold is the best

i do it after working out and it's reportedly good for muscle relexation/building and blood circulation

"The hot water relaxes the muscles and dilates the blood vessels, increasing circulation," says Mark Twight, mountaineer and owner of Gym Jones, a high-intensity training center in Salt Lake City. "The cold water causes your body to slow circulation in the skeletal muscles and helps your heart pump blood through your body. The rotation between cold and hot dilates, then contracts, your blood vessels, facilitating circulation, the key to recovery."

"Contrast showers reduce inflammation and pain," says Neal Henderson, director of sports science at Colorado's Boulder Center for Sports Medicine. "I believe in them."

seriously how to people take cold showers?? I don't know if maybe I just have the most sensitive skin on the planet but I feel that If I ever walked into my shower when 100% cold water was running I would literally seizure up and die, then again its cold as sh!t where I am right now so that's a bias opinion
