Turns out the cold shower thing isn't a meme.

>read up on cold showers
>think it's silly placebo shit
>say 'fuck it' and give it a whirl
>first couple of days bitch out and turn it to hot
>after that able to stay under
>today the cold water started to feel warm after a minute or so

How the fuck is this possible? I could stand there fine and didn't bitch out. Bodily adaptation? Anyone experience this?

Everything is relative, anon.

The body adapts

But I mean, is it still broscience? It's fucking bizarre because it took me a few seconds to realize "oh wait this feels fucking warm now" and the fucking thing was still set to cold.

Honestly a bit spooked right now. A week ago I ran out like a bitch but today stood there like it was nothing at all.

Have I tapped into some /x/ tier shit?

What's broscience is the superpowers thing, I've been cold showering for 6 years and other than improved hair, skin and slightly better feel right after showering I haven't noticed anything else.

Right, but after a while did you adapt and not rush out/turn it right to hot?

Also yeah the superpowers aspect is silly, though I do like the feeling of being able to withstand something I could not originally, but that's adaptation for ya.
