So the new habit, cold water immersion. The benefits are many:

1. Increased alertness – How I need this now that coffee has been eliminated.
2. Stronger immune system – those that have adopted this method have shown less illness due to common cold and flu.
3. Boosted mood – Cold showers activate the sympathetic nervous system and increase the availability of neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and endorphins, people may be less likely to experience depressive symptoms after a cold shower.
4. Improved physical recovery post exercise – by reducing inflammation and reduce feelings of fatigue
5. Improved lymphatic and cardiovascular circulation – it stimulates the heart to work harder shunting blood through the body.

Man I’m in, so in…..First where’s my towel.

What a guest, we talk eating disorder, the land where we grew up, diet, high frequency training, life post covid, cold water therapy, my lack of coffee and karaoke mics.
