I heard Joe Rogan & some other people say that taking a cold

dunno bout a cold shower, but icebaths after are for recovery

does cold mean actually coldest your shower goes, or just lukewarm in the middle, to where the water hits you and it feels cool, and then slides down you and warms a little

joe rogan believes anything you tell him.

I don't about science, but I always take cold showers. For me, they are just more refreshing than warm showers, and at this point it's just another facet of discipline.

This. Joe Rogan is a muscle-head dummy.

>Mercola
>sounds like bullshit

One of Tim Ferris' recent podcasts was about cold and heat exposure actually.

tl:dr cold exposure increases recovery, but potentially reduces hypertrophy (research is split about this), and not every shower gets cold enough to actually reap the benefits

I live in the tropics. Fuck warm showers, it's warm enough already that without AC I only wear boxers.

oh shit alright
usually, when it comes down to it, there seems to turn out to be very little actual hard scientific evidence for specific types of behavior within exercise.... shame, really

>>41610134
yea i live in cold country, so warm showers tend to be my shit

Not sure but cold shower masturbation after working out is literally the greatest feeling in the world.

>Hot water knob? Haven't touched it in months. I'm actually currently going through the process of having it uninstalled from my plumbing, they should be coming out sometime next week. I had to list a reason(s) on the work order as to why I am requesting my hot water knob to be removed and discarded. Would you care to hear the reasons? Well stay tuned friend. 3 reasons:

>1. Discipline
>2. Mental toughness
>3. It raises my testosterone

>My property manager was initially questioning my reasons, but I explained to her that by taking cold showers I am actually able to develop discipline and mental toughness. After a long and heated (note that I needn't anything heated, especially my water) debate, I was able to convince her to put the work order in. Now I'm living a great life, warm water free. I even started forcing my gf to take cold showers with me. I refuse to date an inferior female, and I explained to her that if she can't learn to accept and love cold showers as I have then we really have no business being together anyways.

>She's already received a black mark for questioning my NoFap practices stating that she wants my seed and wishes me to release my seed. Should she continue in this non-stoic fashion then I don't see us lasting much longer.

I don't know about beneficial, but I know for a fucking fact that cold showers feel amazing after a hot workout.


If you want a hot shower after an intense workout, then you can go suck your dad's dick forever, gayfag

Although his podcast is extremely entertaining, Joe Rogan believes all pseudoscience and neuroscience.

All of this is legit though and nofap doesn't include nosex

Slightly colder than comfortable. After a short time turn it a bit colder again
then after a bit slightly colder again.
When your finished with your showering make it a good chunk colder and stay like 40-60 sec
Then turn water off.

To be fair, he's gone back on his position on the moon landing when he stopped to consider the evidence.
