    Hey Dudes,

    In lot of places, the idea of cold showers is to jump straight into the coldest water stream, I haven't had a proper cold shower yet, but only done it in a gradual manner.

    My quesiton is, there really benefits of going straight to cold water stead of going from warm water to cold?

    I can't see a difference.. And does it really kill the urges?

    Thanks

    Hey Cosmo, I started taking cold showers. I can tell you that you are less comfortable in the beginning, but you have the feeling that you het pumped. It kills my urges, that is for sure.

    Hey, I didn't really see anything about hot n cold showers. Not only does it help, but it can be good for your metabolism. Most of the time use cold water but hot for a while as well. I did that before I started taking cold baths and it was a good transition. Though I started in the summer I
    still enjoy them especially when I'm feeling strong urges... I use only cold when it's really bad

    Cold showers is better for the skin, hair and muscles.
    One benefit I experienced from cold shower is that when I swim in water for some time, I dont get cold and start shivering. My body is much warmer in water now and I can stay in the water for longer time.
    Cold showers teaches you to ignore pain. So when I train and I get the feeling that Im tired, that feeling is more numb now.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    I'm just going strait to the cold showers now and i'm liking it very much. Not so good when I start, but nice felling afterwards.

    I didn't know it was good for skin, hair and muscles, a nice plus to keep doing it now.

    I'm taking cold showers too and I feel very energized after the shower. I woke up 5am today and took a 10 minutes cold shower... Horrible at the beginning, but very pleasant at the end!

    Idk I was starting in the middle were it was still cold but not ice. And then I would gradually decrease the temp. I really think it helps keep urges away. You know it's cold enough when ur dick shrivels. Lol and you know you bee. In there long enough when it isn't cold any more.

    Recently in the last week I started taking hot showers and at the end I just kill it to straight cold and stay under it until my body adjust 2-3 mins.
