Cold showers

I've been experimenting with cold showers again. Last summer (2014) I switched to cold showers and became a fan. Then sometime when I started biking and stopped going to the gym (March?) I fell out of the habit. Now I'm back on the cold shower train. I feel super invigorated and have read that there are lots of health benefits like boosting the immune system.

What does Dr. Treit think? Placebo effect? Real health benefits? A bunch of nonsense?

    Are you aware of the routine Andreas does to shock his system when he showers? Something like turn the water up super hot for x amount of time and then turn it to super cold, I think maybe doing that multiple times. It sounds horrible.

    Yeah, contrast showers. I've been doing them the last few days. They are AWESOME. Seriously, you feel great afterward. Frankly much less torturous than a straight up cold shower.
