9 Reasons to Take Cold Showers Everyday

[@GravityTransformation]

References 1. A study from the Netherlands including 3,018 people found that those who took cold showers were less likely to take time off from work due to sickness than those who took warm showers. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5025014/pdf/pone.0161749.pdf 2. “A 29% reduction in sickness absence for (hot-to-) cold shower regimen compared to the control group” www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5025014/pdf/pone.0161749.pdf 3. A study from Czechia showed that when "athletic young men" were immersed in cold water three times a week for six weeks, it boosted their immune system. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8925815/ 4. Another study looked at whether cold water immersion (14 degrees C for one hour) impacts biomarkers of the immune system in young, healthy men. Researchers found that cold water immersion three times per week for six weeks increased the number of lymphocytes, in these young men's bodies. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8925815/ 5. For example, a study published in the International Journal of Sports Medicine looked at how cold-water immersion after exercise affected blood flow. The result was that after four weeks, the scientists found an improvement in blood flow to and from muscles. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31842246/ 6. One study found that men that were immersed in cold water at 50°F (10°C) for 15 minutes 3 times a week for four weeks after running were able to increase mitochondrial biogenesis occurring in their muscle tissue. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26041108/ 7. Another study found that cold water exposure (50°F or 10°C) following high intensity running increased PGC1α, a gene that increases the number of mitochondria in muscle. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24561815 8. There is anecdotal evidence that cold exposure improves mood and it has been suggested that cold showers may even be used to prevent and treat depression. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17993252 9. For instance, research shows that when you deplete norepinephrine in someone, they become depressed. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3131098/ 10. It’s been shown in both mice and human studies that cold exposure can increase norepinephrine, which is why cold showers might be beneficial for increasing happiness and treating depression. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18461718/ link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s004210050065 11. One hour of cold water immersion at 68°F did not increase norepinephrine while one hour at 57°F did increase norepiniphenrine. And the difference between 10 degrees farenheight was huge. The group that stayed in 57 degree water increased norepinephrine by 530 percent. link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s004210050065 12. Immersing yourself in cold water at 40°F (4.4°C) for 20 seconds for twelve weeks increased norepinephrine by 200 to 300%. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00365510701516350 13. Norepinephrine inhibits the inflammatory pathway in the body by decreasing levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha, also known as TNF-alpha. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1845768 14. Norepinephrine decreases other inflammatory chemicals like macrophage inflammatory protein-1α. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1038/sj.bjp.0702179/full 15. Another study found that regular cold water swimmers had higher levels of RBM3 in their blood, which is a “cold-shock protein” that is important for creating new connections between neurons in the brain. www.hra.nhs.uk/planning-and-improving-research/application-summaries/research-summaries/the-cold-shock-response-induced-by-cold-water-swimming/ 16. In older adults, cold water applied to the face and neck has been shown to improve brain function. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10378499/ 17. One study done in young men found that cold water immersion (head out) in 68°F (20°C) for one hour raised metabolic rate by 93% and one hour at 57°F (14°C) raised metabolic rate by 350%.

Honestly my favorite thing every day. Watching some specific people on youtube made me understand that seeking discomfort is essential. When it's not your choice to be in the cold it's gonna suck and you're probably gonna complain. If you seek the cold willingly it will not bother you. Your mind is in a meditative state and your blood is flowing better. When you hop out of a hot shower you feel relaxed and lazy. When you hop out of a cold shower you feel energized and god like!

Pro-tip The dread + the first 5 seconds of a cold shower are really the only unpleasant parts. After that, there is a VERY significant falloff of unpleasantness. How to use this to your advantage? Just tell yourself that you are going in for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, you decide whether you want to continue the cold shower or not. This will reduce your pre-shower dread drastically (and the dread is responsible for most of the unpleasantness in my opinion). If you can reduce the dread and get through the first 5 seconds, most likely, you won't really even mind the rest of the shower. It's a lot like the mantra, "Just get to the gym." Once you're at the gym, working out is hardly even an event, let alone an inconvenience. Same goes for the shower. You have pre-shower dread... 5 seconds of cold-shock... and the rest is just automatic. It's like jumping into a pool. You feel the dread/angst before you jump in. You feel the cold shock when you enter. By the time you come up for air, the seal is broken, and there's no more unpleasantness involved.

Maybe not as accessible as a cold shower, but I noticed a number of these benefits while working once a week in a frozen food department of a large supermarket - so you don't necessarily have to get wet ;-). I was in good physical shape at the time anyway, but the stand out benefit for me was the boost to the immune system - for the 3 years I was working there I was almost bullet proof. 2 months after leaving, I came down with the flu.

[@vintagedrugrug8637]

For anyone struggling i just started 2 cold showers a day 1 full cold 1 starting warm and ending cold for 7 minutes , if youre having trouble listen to a few songs and try to focus on singing along without sounding crazy it helped me focus my breathing and helped calm my mind

[@chibibble]

Funny how this video was sent to me by a family member who said it reminded them of me. I have been taking cold showers for a couple years, and it’s interesting how much I reject hot water now. It also exacerbated my dislike of hot things in general, drinks, weather, food, etc. I really do thrive in a cold environment much more than a warm one, and it seems I’m the odd one out in my family lol. Edit: I also wanted to add that I hype myself up to take a cold shower by making myself sweat via dancing, which makes the shower a million times more enjoyable. It’s also amazing to take a cold shower after being in the humid outside during the summer.

I used to do cold showers and it felt pretty great (especially during the summer time) but then I dated this woman and during our honey moon phase, we took a lot of showers together and she used burning hot water to shower so it got me used to the feeling of my pores opening up and my skin being less tense afterwards. So I started showing with hot water and have been doing so for the last few years. Yesterday, I decided to turn the water colder and colder as I showered because I was sweating and gross from working in the sun all day. It made me miss showering in cold water and it’s funny to see this video the following morning. I’ll definitely be taking cold showers again. You feel so refreshed afterwards. Warm showers make me feel lazy but cold showers make me feel so active and my muscles feel nice after a good workout.

A hybrid shower is the way to go unless you enjoy having clogged pores. The steam from the heat opens up your pores which allows for all the dirt and oils in your skin to come out. This is how you avoid getting pimples and blackheads. So I first run the shower for a minute to get it steaming. So that the pores open up. Then I turn the water to warm and begin washing. Finally I rinse off and then stand under the cold water for about 2 or 3 minutes.

Youngboy has truly changed my whole entire life. I was first a clueless, senseless individual, until YB . He took me under his wing and guided me through his delightful path. I have since then changed into a charming handsome man. I wish all other non-YB listeners will at last find this path as it will lead to the whole world being in harmony and peace at last. No single individual outshining others such as Kentrell has been graced to us since the beginning of time. When miracles like James Johnson III touch down to our planet, the clouds clear and the birds start chirping. I wouldnt be so surprised if YB is the reason we are able to breathe, eat, and hear everyday. When YB is played upon the ears of one, they come at peace, being able to outmaneuver and look down on others. If one is not fond of YB, you can take a observation out of the others, they are sad, unjoyful, and melancholy. They do not understand that would take a bullet for us, just as we would for him. It is truly enraging today that these who disrespect Youngboy are continuously allowed to withhold opinions today. But in the end, thank you YB for your wonderful blessing you decide to share THE LAST SLIMETO with us on Aug 5 at exactly 12:00 AM EST. It will be celebrated from today, everyday forward.

[@Nick-NY]

@@kayl2307 I stopped. I was in more pain after the showers than before.

[@Nick-NY]

@@kayl2307I restarted taking cold showers a few weeks ago. The initial shock is still there but doesn’t last as long. Only for a few seconds. I start with a warm showers then go cold for 3-5 minutes. I actually look forward to my cold showers now.

[@ethan.wroblewski]

They cleared up my acne! Taking cold showers cleared it up. Cold showers are really good for the skin too.

[@mightymouse279]

I take 15-20 min cold 🥶 showers 🚿 at first it’s painful but once your body adapts the water feels slightly warm

[@johanbrand8601]

Damn that's a long shower.

[@mightymouse279]

I brush my teeth in the shower as well 😬

[@KelloTheArtist]

Watching this video knowing I’m still not going to torture myself with a cold shower 😭

[@andresvillanueva5131]

It also helps to your skin, regular and hot showers make it dry, while cold showers keep it moist, and if yoh have atopic skin will be the greatest improvement AND will help on saving since yoh don't have to use so much cream after a shower

[@Jaguar1314]

Taking super hot showers works for me. As long as the body is stressed all the mechanisms kick in.

[@koningklootzak7788]

Wrong

[@emre3010]

Been taking cold showers for almost 4 months now and feel much more energetic and stressless.

[@connermcdonald5972]

I literally started taking cold showers this week how'd you know

[@koningklootzak7788]

Does the world turn around you?

[@LSLS220]

Wow I didn’t realize taking cold showers has so many benefits. This video has now motivated me to start taking cold showers daily.

[@lazarus76]

5:11 💀💀💀💀

[@jtubelee]

There you go, this is all really good. I started taking notice of cold showers when I learned about Wim Hof.

[@chrisvesy7245]

My water heater broke so I took a cold shower...it was miserable as hell !!🥶

[@koningklootzak7788]

No

[@dougstobaugh376]

Thanks for the Educational podcast on could showers I have no choice I have a could shower all of the time. GOD-BLESS.

[@amilombanugo8321]

Bruh been doing cold showers for almost 3 years..and I don’t ever enjoy them

[@AntiLifeEquation1]

I did it for 3 months and hated it, and I didnt feel as clean.

[@Jofelmenneke]

Stop doing them. Enjoy life😁

[@allenshadrick22]

Ive been doing this for 3 years! Its so exhilarating! I still like hot showers for relaxation but in the mornings, cold is best!

[@jakebulette6485]

Been doing cold showers for a month now. Freezing, always craving a blanket, and completely miserable. I can honestly say though I feel much more alert, so much so that I can’t sleep. Because I’m freezing.

[@CautiousHaze]

I shower with a wet blanket

[@thereforeayam]

Was looking for a more realistic reaction such as this

[@jakebulette6485]

@@thereforeayam honestly I think the only reason ppl feel more “alert” is because they’re freezing. Same with pain. Stabbing yourself with a paper clip in the morning can wake you up, but only because it’s an involuntary reaction that distracts you from your thoughts. Taking cold showers will leave you feeling cold and craving a blanket unless you live in Arizona. Just that you’re distracted from your thoughts doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be more productive that way, if you can’t even focus on anything besides the cold/pain End of the day: if you’re already in a cold environment, cold showers will lower your blood temperature further and make you miserable. This “alert” B.S. is only a temporary feeling as a result of involuntary discomfort. You can get the same feeling by stabbing yourself, running, doing 50 push ups, or slapping yourself in the face. Personally I prefer exercise. I get the same rush without feeling debilitatingly cold in an already freezing apartment

[@z3r0c00l2]

That helped a lot. Thanks for sharing. Will start having cold showers from now on....

[@uwutree3476]

cold showers >>>> hot showers

[@ferdltantmusic5761]

"submerged in cold water" is even more effective, as the "shock" is even greater. Do not start crazy, but if you have access to a pool outside, start in summer and just do not stop until winter to go into the pool for a few minutes, it even feels not "that cold" after some time. One side effect is, that you feel warm/hot during night and have to remove the blankets. Even if you are outside (in winter) you need less clothing to stay warm.

[@stevefaure415]

Eh, there's a lot of hokus-pokus stuff going on here. "Mental toughness"? That's a pretty subjective benefit. Is a rush of noradrenaline everyday necessarily a healthy habit? There are a lot of things that similarly will wake you up, increase your heart rate, and get you going in the morning that are ultimately bad for your body. I feel like there's a definite weightlifter mentality here of "it's unpleasant so it must be good for you". Who knows though. It is nice when you're done with it, give you that.

[@elijahbrown3109]

Key phrase: in the morning. I have lived in Colombia for a year and have been taking cold showers since I got here. It absolutely sucks to take a cold shower at the end of the day. All it does is make me uncomfortable for ten minutes. I literally have to hype myself up with RATM to take a shower in the afternoon lol it's the worse. However, a cold shower in the morning definitely wakes you up and gives you a boost

[@tvwatcher1883]

-sleeping in a cold room is good too, (google sleeping in cold), i regularly sleep in unheated porch, except for about two months a year (when it goes below 30 :)

[@bjsmjx98]

Amazingly well explained! I have been doing cold showers every day and getting all the benefits GT spoke about! Keep up the good work!

[@hossam4794]

I hope that you make video about gaining strength without mass and another one for speed without mass

[@HardMonteStyle]

I take cold showers daily but water in my house is 14-16°C so it's not as cold as water in lakes for example or 50°F (mentioned in the video) which is 10°C but I can tell you all the results are visible even in this higher temperature

[@hassana1077]

I live in Saudi Arabia and we don’t have cold showers here. Water is either boiling hot in the summer or lukewarm in the winter.

[@heavy_gamer195]

really true i bathed with cold water and i showed up to church full of energy and a good mood

[@early00syassine85]

what temprrature of the water should be in our cold showers ??? what it the preferable temperature for good benifits !!🆘

[@spacejamgaming]

I don't know why you post a video exactly what I need right now.

[@happyyardservice2914]

I just got done wit h my morning cold shower and I see this vidoe. Talking about being aligned. lol. Great video!!

[@thegreatadil]

can you pls post a video on the advantage and disadvantage of drinking cold water

[@RockyAliTyson1]

Im at the point now where I wish the water would get colder, (its summer atm) I can't wait until winter because that's gonna be the real test. Its gonna take serious discipline and willpower to take a cold shower in the winter when you might feel chilled and want to take a hot shower.

[@KotuJitzu]

I take cold showers in the dark. I do it for at least 15 minutes. It defeats fear. Used to be afraid of bugs. Now I can pick them up. Use to be afraid of heights. Now I can jump 2 stories off a big house no hesitation. Used to be insecure, now I don't care what others think. That's just a few benefits. I've been taking cold showers everyday at least once at most three. That's how I know if your wondering. It's worth it but don't over do it.

[@whereismaspahgeti2675]

Ive started taking cold shower everday..starting was difficult but once you get used to it use overcome it..HABIT & CONSISTANCE..Now starting to read 3 pages of book everyday..😁

[@hliaskont946]

Wow this channel is like on a next level of information and explanation ,but also keeps it interesting .Great job every video I’ve seen is right on point .

[@thewebstylist]

From someone who challenged himself to 2 weeks turned into 2 years!! I will say, just like my other brutal daily ACV, it never gets easier just fyi so ‘brace yourself’ but strongly agree w this vid benefits

[@saulfmoran]

Houston Texas here. At most, the old temperature on water is in the high 70s.

[@Josh-wk2ji]

Everytime I check their website it says hurry now only 100 spots left....always...100 spots left....lol!

[@rosagoglia4649]

Thank you.. I know I feel better and generally get more done this way, for me.

[@landonsmith2154]

Cold showers are the best! Ive noticed that my body is able to relax more after a great workout!

[@rounaksubramanian1686]
