Do you hate cold showers? Me too! But according to this article, cold showers have many benefits. And to be honest, deep inside I know it, and maybe you do too. But to get yourself to actually set the water to cold when you have the luxury of a hot, relaxing shower is quite difficult. Here is the article:
5 Surprising Benefits of Cold Showers
According to the article cold showers:
Burn fat
Boost recovery after exercise
Increase mood and alertness
Strengthen immunity and circulation
Give you attractive hair and skin
Since I pay for that water to get heated I am not letting it go to a waste. So I started doing, what the article describes at the end as a Bond-style “Scottish Shower”.
