I used to box and weighlift heavy so i needed this type of thing cause my nerves would literally feel like :bustback: inside

So i got on this cold shower wave. Turning gradually just prolongs the torture. Just switch it immediately to the coldest setting and stand there STIFF and STILL as hell, eyes clenched shut and fight that **** mentally. I usually stand there eyes closed like:omg: Focus the water to hit that spot on the back of your neck. like so:

that spot is really the heart of the nervous system, and once that area gets over the shock of the freezing cold, it gets easier from there. Stay in that water, still as **** until you FEEL your heart start beating faster, like you feel it beating deep and heavy. Stay for about another 20-30 seconds(circulation takes about 23 seconds to do a full cycle), then you can get out.

Its torture brehs, but believe me, it works if you work out heavy, its good for your skin, great for circulation, and will WAKE you up like :merchant:

Its a mental exercise too, dont run from it, stand there and focus on the torture mentally. When you done, believe me, for the next hour or so, you goin step out feeling strong as an OX:bryan:

:ohhh: Interesting,

That is the exact spot I can't handle the cold water. I usually allow cold shower to hit the top of my head.

I must have been doing it wrong the whole time. :sadcam:

Can't wait to start it tomorrow. Pain is sometimes misinterpreted pleasure. Bring on the health benefits
:obama:

Been doing this since Saturday and I'm gonna continue to do it. I start of with warm water then a quick min on hot then bike to warm to open my pores n whatnot, then I wash myself with african black soap and rinse with freezing cold water. Come out relaxed and refreshed, I finish off with sum raw shea butter :wow:

I was forced to do this when the hot water heater broke. I got used to it and continue to do it now. I take hot showers once in a while but being so hot outside at time the cold shower feels tremendous
same here

I could never do this. After a workout the hot water feels so good and if I'm ever freezing my soreness really intensifies.
