Can someone tldr cold showers?

Is it a meme?

What's the proper procedure?

Pointless chastity for the purpose of feeling superior to everyone else

It's the meme version of home cryotherapy.

Supposedly reduces DOMS and lets you get back training faster.

I tried it and honestly I like it, I don't know about any meme benefits but I live in a hot climate and it has noticeably reduced my underarm sweat. I sweat profusely all the time and it has really helped cut that down.

It also makes my hair and skin feel better, and feels extra comfy when I get in a warm bed. So, yeah it has benefits, just maybe not what you're expecting.

makes you feel like a savage and builds willpower, gets you out of your comfort zone. you do it for it's own sake and not cuz buzzfeed told you so

>wahhh you should only do a thing to talk about it

I do it for the discipline and as a bonus it's a nice way to wake up.

It's a meme gains wise.
It helps you keep your skin slight more clean and healthy. Take a hot/warm shower first, wash yourself properly, then take a cold one to close off the clean pores. It also helps you build mental strength. There might be slight benefits gains, test, energy wise, but they're probably so tiny that you wouldn't see the difference. I definitely didn't, but i enjoy them.

At worst cold showers will save power and wont dehydrate your skin, at best see the plethora of benefits people claim.

It may have marginal benefits for certain people (for skin or hair or whatever) but if you don't have any problems with that then it's just a meme people do so they can tell people they take cold showers.
If cold showers were the norm, those same people would be taking hot showers and tell you how great it is.

>take 2 scoops pwo and alternate between fire hot and ice cold shower
I don't know why but it feels like heaven and I have a glow like I just nutted when I get out
