"Cold water immersion attenuated long term gains in muscle mass and strength. It also blunted the activation of key proteins and satellite cells in skeletal muscle up to 2 days after strength exercise."

Let's get this party started
>Cold water immersion was performed within 5 min after each training session.
>Water was circulated continuously and maintained at 10.1 ± 0.3°C
The participants minimized any re-warming following cold water immersion or cooling following active recovery by not showering or bathing for at least 2 h after the recovery therapies.
So they immediately cooled down after exercise to temperatures lower than those achieved in showers and refrained from warming back up afterwards.
Also;
Study 1
>"24 physically active young men"
Study 2
>"10 physically active young men"
GREAT sample sizes famalam
>Study wasn't preregistered
Conclusion:
>Small sample size
>Single study that wasn't preregisterd
>Entirely different settings from a cold shower
