Intense exposure to cold has been studied and shown to raise brown fat levels in the body over long periods of time which are useful in endurance and survival situations.
Unfortunately this takes at least 6+ months for any study to show noticeable changes.
OP is simply proving that the placebo effect is a very real thing.
Yeah man, I love cold showers. From what I heard Wim Hof (aka The Iceman) was studied and it was suggested he could steer parts of his auto-immume system. I did not read the studies fully, however his website links to them.
http://www.icemanwimhof.com/science
Keep up the cold showers if you like them.
So is this another stupid fucking /fit/ attempt at a "meme" or is there any proven scientific advantage to a cold shower?
inb4 "Google" - I want to hear you guys defend it.
>>37334043
He'd probably look alright with either
Cold showers are good post workout thats it
in the morning you need a hot shower
>>37334651
None whatsoever, but intense exposure to cold has been shown to have benefits in the long term. Look up Wim Hof and/or cryotherapy and you'll find the marketing end, but there are some studies behind both of those entities
>>37334181
the colder the better you pussy, google it. Ice showers 10/10
>>37334651
your loss faggot
>>37334057
It's like the nofap meme where everyone greatly over-exaggerates the effects of it.
>>37334533
Well that may be, but cold water is easier on the skin than hot water, cold water can reduce swelling and inflammation in joints and tissues,
and I don't have the science here, but I suspect cold water "alerts" the body into doing certain things that may be better for a person's overall health.
Every once in a while, for injuries and strain I'll take a 5 min icebath and I have found that it helps immensely and is oddly refreshing.

Lol cold showers are bad since you dont actually clean your pores.
You need warm water

I assume you're not this faggot >>37335026
who brought it up in a negative, hence the discussion about it. learn to read so you can get context on what you're commenting on before you "chime in" with your "2 cents"
>>37335037
>>37335055
I got a serious question. What if I don't get random boners, but when I'm with a girl I still get hard? What test lv would I be?
>>37335125
serious mode boys
>>37335100
only faggots assume things
>>37334755
You're 100% incorrect. Warm showers are better for recovery whereas cold showers are better to get you up for the day.
>>37335180
so you're saying you are the faggot who brought up random boners in a negative light and then meme arrowed about them? that just makes you a fucking retard if it's true
>>37335125
>literally expecting people on the internet to give you an estimate of your test levels
>based on "I get boners when i have sex but not so much otherwise"
How fucking stupid are you people?
>>37335020
Pores can not "open" and "close" you fucking pleb
>>37335314
Are you retarded
I literally can't take a shower without it being so hot it burns my skin and then rotating every minute to evenly distribute the heat
>>37335374
He's right. When you steam your face you're not opening your pores, your loosening and clearing out the sebum which clogs them. This makes them appear larger.
>>37335374
>I heard my mom say it once so it must be true
Google it

Nope you are just an uninformed pleb

Hot showers ward off delayed onset muscle soreness
I live in Canada. Fuck cold anything.
Am I just half assing it if I step into a warn shower, scrub up in a warm shower, and once I've scrubbed clean remove all hot water and "soak" in a cold shower for a while?
>>37336275
No its called a Scottish shower. You get to kill all BO bacteria, relax for a while and clear your skin. Then you get the energy boost and skin protection that is cold showers. Make sure it's actually cold though. If the room temperature air doesn't feel like a warm hug when you step out then it's not cold enough

the only noticeable benefits cold showers have given me include feeling more relaxed and cooled down, and feeling more mentally calm for a while.

i maintained a nofap streak of about 6 days. by day 4 i felt buzzed all the time like i was on some kind of drug, and definitely felt a confidence boost and had no trouble maintaining eye contact when speaking to anyone (man, woman, attractive, etc.). day 5 and 6 were on level with the 4th day, no increase in effects. is this what people not addicted to masturbating feel like all the time? i ended it on day 6 and will see if i can get the same affect in a few days. i don't really see any reason to go past the 4 or 5 day mark desu.

cold shower veteran of 5 years.
i tell everybody. all declare me for insane.
tfw skin so smooth and clear all womyn merlin.
tfw i dont use any expensive care at all.
>>37340959
this.
i used to get dry skin in the winter. one day after a cold shower it started to clear up immensely. a couple days later and it was gone.
>>37340959
so do you have a warm shower and then cool down or just hop into the cold straight away
how often do you shower and for how long ?
>>37334052
>>37340959
Did cold showers for 2 years but haven't noticed that, probably because nobody talks to me.
What I am is way healthier though, I used to get sick every season change, well not in the past 2 years. Worst I get is some coughing, and that's cured by cold showers.
