The Joy of Cold Showers

I had a cold shower and just after that I was about to post about it. Yes take cold showers every day it really reduces the stress. I think it relaxes the tension in the muscles.

 

This is awesome. I always rejected the idea of cold showers but now I want to give it a try. I really like how the guy describes it in that video he seems like a genuine badass.

 

Yeah Mark Queppet is the man. He has some other videos floating around. And he has a ton on nofapacademy.com I signed up for that for a few months and have been clean ever since.

 

Good luck brother, hope you can be calm and confident, and keep in mind you are interviewing them as well: you don;t want to end up in a shitty work environment / dead end job.

 

Cutting ice with a chainsaw, that's so bad ass it doesn't even sound real.

 

I tried the cold shower following the instructions of that video from Mark Queppet. It worked just like he said. I guess I just needed someone to explain it in a way that made good logical sense.

 

They do help indeed when doing it the right way. I normally went from warm to cold. Now I went for cold right away. Felt a lot of emotions getting out, when I stepped under it. Took a lot of self control but I managed to become relaxed and I felt a lot better when I was done.

 

Did my second cold shower today and stayed in there much longer. The after effects are more noticeable this time, very refreshing. Honestly it's no big deal. I thought it was going to be way more difficult because I've always hated the cold and some people start to panic and stuff. After about 20 seconds the water just feels warm. Pretending that the water is warm really seems to do the trick.

 

I've been doing cold showers for a few weeks (can't even remember exactly when) and I can say they're fun, for me at least, in a weird way I kind of enjoy the thrill it provides, haven't noticed any benefits really (aside from being much shorter) and lately I've been relapsing like crazy so I don't know how far it actually goes in terms of rebooting.

 

Been doing cold showers every morning for about 6 months… Completely unrelated to Nofap. I read something on Lifehacker or somewhere like that, and I thought it would be the one thing that I absolutely, positively couldn't do. So in my head that became a challenge, and I gave it a go. I started off with the "James Bond" shower… As hot as you can stand for 5 mins, then as cold as possible for 5 mins, back to hot for 5, and finish off with a cold one. But that's 20 minutes… who's got time for that? (never mind the water bills!) So now it's straight into the full on cold. It's much easier when the weather's warmer too! I recently joined a gym and always end with a stingingly cold shower after a workout… I feel completely energised and "fizzing". I recently discovered a dutch guy called Win Hof (worth a google) who takes it to the extreme – and has a ton of world records for cold endurance. He reckons, coupled with meditation and breathing excercises controlled exposure to extreme cold can boost your immune system. When he started telling you it can cure AIDs and cancer, and flogging you a $99 program I kind of lost interest a bit, but I was intrigued for a bit

 

Hey! There's an app for that
