I Survived a Cold Shower!

Have you ever heard of people taking cold showers every day or frequently? I actually follow a girl on YouTube who focuses on fitness. She made a video suggesting that people should take cold showers forever. She even explained some of the benefits. Click here to watch that video by Sandra Perez. I have taken cold showers before because I have been to Haiti a few times. Yet, I used the cold water because I absolutely had no other choice. Today, I took a cold shower even when I had access to the warm water. I took it right after I worked out today. I have to say, one I survived, and two, I felt better. But, I will not take them forever!
One man committed to the “30 Day Cold Shower Challenge.” Read his story to get inspired. I will try my best to complete this challenge.
Medical Daily lists and explained seven benefits, some that Sandra explained as well. I have the list below for you.
My result from taking the cold shower in just one day increased my alertness and sped up my muscle recovery. Usually I am dead tired from finishing a hard workout, but I still have class to attend or homework to complete. Today, however, I felt refreshed when I got out the shower and ready to finish my day strong. I also feel my muscles relaxing as I tackled that cold water!
