Because genetics trumps all. Those with weaker genetics go crazy due to frustration and need all the help they can get.

Like a year or so. I had a knee injury playing basketball, and ball was the reason for my cold showers. It helped with motivation, etc. One day I will go back to it. Ill be at UC Berkeley next year so its going to be impossible to play there. Maybe intramural basketball if I can manage school work and hoop.

can confirm,

cold showers are great. increase libido, relaxating ,best thing to wake you up and give you more energy.

really there are no downsides once you get used to it.

You're right, you're dont hear normal people doing this stuff, but you do hear a lot of athletes and physically successful people doing it.

You're average normal person is overweight. If they don't have enough discipline to put the mcdouble down and start running, what makes you think they would be capable of being immersed in cold water for at least 3-5 min?

Also most people are unhealthy and live an unhealthy lifestyle.. By your logic one is also crazy for eating a healthy diet since normal people don't do that as well. With that being said enjoy your normal life

Does it have to be the lowest setting cold or does "cool" stream work too?
