So any of you pussies up for this?

Did my first one today - was brutal (I usually just start with a warm shower then finish with cold for about 30seconds to 1 minute).

Hopefully some of you Wussies give it a go.

Day 1 - complete.
 
I've taken cold showers for the last few years. Recently switched back to hot showers when I got sick, about 2 months ago. Since then it's been mostly hot showers.

Time to go cold again. I definitely felt a lot better throughout the day when I was taking cold showers.
 
Guess the ice bucket wasn't enough. I'll pass.

Not ice bucket.

just switch out your normal warmer shower for a cold one.

I did it last year for about 4 months - then switched to warm and finish with cold.

Today was a shock but got used to it after about 2-3 minutes.

I feel more energized at the moment.

I'll probably do the 20 day challenge then go back to my regular routine of warm then finish wtih cold.

I've tried starting hot and ending cold. But jumping straight into a cold shower was way better IMO.
 
Cold shower is great after a good Sauna session
 
I live in Canada I get cold everything not gonna cold shower

Yeah - I had to take some deep breaths just to jump in today and then took a few minutes of conscious breathing to get "kinda" used to it.

I remember when I did the cold shower for 4months or so last year and I felt energized and ready to take on the day.
 
Took a cold one last night. Havent in years. Expected it to be worse, but still wasn't enjoyable at all.
 
Hot showers in the winter are critical to my quality of life.

Fuck this challenge.
 
Why would I attempt this? I can afford hot water.

You did half warm and half cold and eased into it. Get in there and turn the cold on full blast, wus.
 
Last winter I had a very bad cold and couldn't call out of work. I went into the shower at 6am and had no hot water so I took an ice cold shower. I was shivering as snots were dripping out of my nose.

Fuck cold showers and these gay ass social media challenges.
 
if we dont use up the hot water then it will lead to a loss of jobs and so i will continue to take hot showers to keep jobs in America.

thats my excuse....deal with it.
 
Is this just a challenge to test your endurance and fortitude? Are there any real benefits to this?

Shouldn't have any issue doing this. My shitty student house always has a broken boiler, so I take freezing cold showers fairly often. In a house that is already freezing cold, it is pretty unpleasant.
 
I did it for a few weeks during summer months, but no way I am doing this in the smack of winter. It's -5 Celsius outside right now.

I had noticeably better skin when I did it.
