killamch89 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Depending on the temperature and my mood, I either love it or can't stand it all. It's good to have a cold shower after a rigorous exercise session and sometimes, I'll alternate between cold and hot water which is very relaxing for sore muscles. Do you like bathing in cold water?

Sharon Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I do! Not always but yes particularly after a long run. Mainly because by the time I get home and cool down I am ready to wash away all of the sweat, grime, and saltiness of my body and don't want to wait for the water to warm up. It also feels really good after the initial shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 If it's an extremely hot day, a cold shower is the perfect thing. I don't dry off completely, I just mop up the heavy water that is still on my body, and leave the rest alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StaceyPowers Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I find a shower in cold water (with zero heat) quite uncomfortable, at least for about 40 seconds. But I do it regularly since it helps me practice standing outside my comfort zone, and makes it easier to tolerate other uncomfortable experiences.

Empire Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Cold exposure increases brown fat which is used to generate body heat, you become warmer blooded and more resistant to the cold. That's what is god for but many other things, Has been years since I had a bath, cold shower I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
