    I go hot for the muscles, pores, and lungs. At the end I wind it down to freezing or as close as I can get, a bit at a time. Typically ends in some kind of barbarian spiritual catharsis involving grunting. Then I picture polar bear club and want to die.

      I like to do the same and put myself face first into the cold ass water and act like I’m some wild man standing under a freezing waterfall and gasping for breath.

      Try it sometime.

        Exactly! I recently installed a double showerhead, so now when I look straight up, it’s immersive and horrible! I start taking meditation breaths right before ratcheting the temp down.
