Hot or cold showers after a workout?
What about DOMS?
Hot cause it feels good and someday civilization will collapse and it could be tomorrow and this could be the last hot shower I ever get to enjoy for the remainder of my cold hungry dirty life.
Cold as much as possible, hot when I lack the willpower
cold and then an ice pack on your balls before bed for testosterone increase

To build up willpower. Also it's almost summer, and I live in the god damn desert. Why the fuck would I want to take a warm shower?

any particular reason?
Cold showers increasing testosterone is a myth, but they are good for recovery and burning fat. I do one once a week on my fast day.
Sauna-level heat increases muscular hypertrophy gains, so on workout days I put a rolled up towel under the bathroom door, then take a hot shower. Then run max heat water in the tub for the steam. Then I sit on the edge of the tub with two space heaters going full blast in front of me for 15 minutes.

Cold feels good post a hot intense workout. Warm feels good to relax the muscles, more so after a cold shower.

This basically
I take cold showers after heavy exercise. I take warm showers when I lack the willpower. Sometimes I'll take a hot shower, then make it really cold for the last minute or so.
people are actually saying they take cold showers? WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS BOARD
