The cold water experiment - is having a cold shower or ice Bath beneficial? Short of having a swim in ice water everyday I decided to see what would happen if I had a cold shower every day for 1 year. 

I have been having cold showers for a year now, so I just wanted to share with you my experiences and benefits of having a cold shower.

I was recently left a comment on one of my videos regarding how much of a big boy challenge having a 10 minute freezing cold shower at Zero degrees. I have not been able to test the temperature of the showers I have been having but I do regularly have cold showers and have done so for the last year.

Some have claimed that cold showers can increase testosterone, stop you getting ill by boosting your immune system and improve you hair and skin health. However I do not have any evidence to back up those claims. But I do say that I find them incredibly refreshing.

While I cannot claim to know the science behind why cold showers are effective for the previously acclaimed health benefits, I do find them great pre-workout particularly if i am feeling tired.

This was a personal experiment and something that I will continue to do as I enjoy cold showers.
