Do you take cold showers or hot showers?

[Simslover92]

I think I've only taken one cold shower and never again lol

How do you do it for the people who take cold showers?

[Lynx122]

I do take cold showers in the summer and warm ones in the winter. I can handle cold water but I only do it when I have to or really want to. Like diving into a cold river to get the volleyball or swiming in almost freezing water underneath a waterfall in the mountains and then lying on a warm rock to warm up again. I can kind of steel my mind when I need to. I also like cold showers in the summer because it makes you feel refreshed for like 2-3 hours. But now I'm living in a apartment that's half burried in the ground and well isolated so it's a lot cooler than you'd expect in summer so I don't really need to take cold showers atm unless it's gonna get really hot.

Generally warm showers, but after a workout where I'm hot and sweaty, nothing beats a cold shower. But that happens mostly in the summer. Winter is a no go.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

Personally, my shower bath has been custom-programmed to start with hot water temperature which slowly & gradually gets cooler towards the end of my shower.

My husband has a similar setting as well except his water temperature gradually gets cooler faster since he doesn't take showers as long as I do.

Mostly hot but in summer I do venture into cold showers too.

i don't shower. i sleep in mud. but if you asked for some smart advice, i would say that the ice bath trend is not so good. aneurysm or something like that, i heard can be triggered by cold. i used to only shower cold for years, swim in a pond whose ice scratches my chest. i actually don't know if i can swim or not, i only tried in a pond, and it is a miracle i didn't get myself killed. just like the time i held an infrared lamp in the bath tub and was falling asleep, almost electrocuting myself. i think cold showers must be beneficial for people who want to break habits, the pain and adrenaline make that other craving or habit seem dwarfed. but i personally stopped the cold shit because it makes me into a beast, the same heat that can be used for the third eye and heart chakra, gets wasted into body heat. if you ask me. it has nothing to do with me becoming a lazy loser.

Great question I have before. But everyday taking a shower is like a me moment . I can relax or wake up and I want to feel good in that moment.

But wait since I said it like that

I do remember cold showers and being cold when finished but feeling good.

Nah hot shower the only way to go

[Calyptomaniac]

First thing in the morning I'm taking as hot a shower as I can get it. My AC is on all night and it's like 65 in here when I wake up. If I've been outside for 2 minutes in the summer? I'll go back and do that ice bucket challenge happily...

[Levin]

I take cold showers everyday.

Well, it's a normal shower really.

But then I blast myself with ice for the last 30 seconds. It's quite brutal in the dead of winter... But you do feel great after.

[NathanDavis]

I've always, ALWAYS taken cold showers... morning, day or night

but, you just have to consider the fact that even during the night and some mornings... down here, we wake up to temperatures around the 90 degrees so... that's why

[beebella]

I sweat easily, so I can't do fully hot showers. I'll usually start off with warm water to warm my body up, then I turn it down. I try to stick with lukewarm, but with the hot weather coming soon, I'm probably going to be taking colder showers.

[Twodogs0525]

In the summer, I take a lukewarm shower and just before I'm done, I'll put the water on cold for a few seconds. In the winter, I'll take a warm shower.

[AviatorTom]

Hot showers please.
The only time I've taken a cold shower is when there's no hot water... an ancient hotel ora campground, for example.

[lilBigPotato]

Depends on the weather but usually I don't like them too hot.

[MrChinaski]

It's literally freezing here most mornings for about 4 months. Last year hit 0F one night.

Yep. Hot showers are the only way.

[DryGermanGuy]

Hot showers in spring, autumn and winter, cold showers in summer.

[Nikki1989]

Cold to lukewarm. I hate hot showers.

[BCRanger10]

I take cold showers a couple of times per week. They are for penitential reasons.

[DonaldDarko]

Might have once. I've been in cold lakes and ponds a few times.

[WhitneySnow]

Hot! Never took a cold shower except one time during a heat wave.

[Alex-Snow]

In the cooler months I will take a hot or very warm shower. During the hot summer months I like a cool shower but not freezing cold.

[LiamJHayden]

Not cold per se, but below body temperature.

[LiamS95]

I take more like very warm showers so not piping hot or cold,

[mrkdvsn]

I start my showers off warm, and then gradually make it cooler as I go

[msc545]

Take hot showers. Cold showers are just a little too much.

[ItsJasmine]

I used to take hot showers until I learned about the benefits of cold or warm baths, it's better for the skin, blood flow and hormonal balance.

[queenofcardio]
