I challenge you

It’s the third winter I’m doing my shower with 1 degree (Celsius) cold. water

I live in a home and the water is only hot when I do the fire in the bathroom boiler.

I usually do it once a week but I need more showers then 1.

So every week I do two shower with 1 degree cold water. It’s refreshing.

I challenge you to do the same for a couple of times. It helps with anxiety/depression/blood circulation/skin and many more. Look it up

At my public school a punishment used to be a cold shower in the morning. It refreshed you for a couple of hours but by midday you were really tired.

It’s 32F here right now. I’m freezing. I don’t even like regular showers, let alone cold ones! Nope.

I lived, for a short time, in an old house and the hot water heater didn’t work so I took cold showers everyday. It took my breath away when I first got in but felt good after I adjusted to it. It was the summer time so I think that helped.

I hate showers. Even hot ones. So no way I’m getting into a cold shower. I’ll keep my hot tub baths thank you.

Oh man I hate cold showers so much. I had to take them in jail. It’s just the worst. One of the nine or ten showers I took there had hot water, and it felt like a divine revelation just to have a hot shower.

So I have failed the challenge, I declare you the victor lol

I think your showers are warmer than 1 degree Celsius. That’s only 33F. Your muscles would freeze and lock up. Cold sure, but not that cold

I will take a cold shower. I never felt more alivr than when I swam in the ocean in the bay.

There’s a guy named Wim Hof who climbed Mt. Everest in a pair of shorts without extra oxygen who gets his stamina from cold exposure therapy. I did his training for a week which required cold showers daily, and eventually I decided that the stress isn’t worth the potential benefits.

Maybe when my head stops hurting I’ll pick it up again.

I lose the challenge. It’s either my way or the highway. And my way is hot, hot showers.
