Ive been hearing lately alot about the benefits of taking cold showers. Have any of you guys been taking cold showers and how have the results been?
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Tried it once. Didn't like the seize of my wiener so never doing that again.
This being said, there has been a lot of research into this and most results came back undecided. Only in cases where the subjects were aware of the purpose of the research did they find cold showers had lot of health benefits, but most serious researchers blame this on a placebo-effect. People were looking for better health because of the showers, so they found it obviously.
My dad took 30 seconds cold showers for over a year. He claims he never felt better, but I think it's psychological. You do something unpleasant for your health, so subconsiously you want it to help, so your body will act like it helps.
My dad also robs his own urine on his scalp because someone told him it helps against hair loss. Don't be like my dad man.. don't do it.

I tried it for about two months. You do feel better, but I think it is the psychological aspects like mo said. I did it along with nofap and i was shining. I still do no fap and thinking about bringing the showers back . I would say you are more focused and open to the world, but I think that's because of the discipline. You keep conquer things you don't like . No big deal but a good start for the day to wake up and already grinding through uncomfortable situations.
NoFap is something every guy should do. Period.
The testosteron building up in your body. The urge to approach women.. the better the sex is when you finally get one into your bed.
Cold showers, nah
No fapping, definitely
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

No fap is good. It needs to be no porn and no fap.
One of the keys to success with no porn and no fap is getting laid on a regular basis.
speed dawg

I can do it in the summer, but not in the winter. F*ck that noise.
I think the cold has more to do with the body going to survival mode, which produces good hormones, including T. If you put yourself in situations where you are challenged, your body will react accordingly, and usually in a favorable way.
A note on the nofap.....I agree with others that you need to be getting laid regularly or this can have a bad effect, you'll turn into an idiot. If you are single, I suggest just fapping with no porn once or twice a week or so.
