I play rugby for my school, and just wondered if i have a cold shower will it have any benefit to my muscles? I'm asking this because occasionally i get cramp in my calves.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Hot shower vs Cold shower

- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Cold bath!
Whenever my dad does hard training or has been playing lots of football he has a cold bath. One of my friends does a lot of running and he has an ice cold bath after. When my muscles ache from the gym or something my dad always tells me to have a cold bath. (Although I never do it, I go and have a hot bath with scented candles and relaxing music - bliss!)

"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

There is nothing like jumping in a cold tub or ice cold water. Supposedly, there are a lot of health benefits to taking showers/baths in cold water.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I have LBP, lower back pain from lifting and it has killed my progress because I have to stop all exercise!!! I tried this contrast shower last night and the cold water is brutal!!! Once the hot comes in it makes the whole thing worth it!!!
My respect goes out for a Navy Seal because that cold water is no joke!!!!!!!!
At first, it almost takes your breathe away because your body does not how to respond.
I am going to continue trying this as a test of will!!! It is a unique experience, that is for sure.

LOL really, doctor? I dont know about the testosterone and immunity thing but it sure as hell wakes you up.The Proof said:
The basis behind the contrast bath/shower is that the cold causes vasoconstriction and has an anesthetic effect, while the heat causes vasodilation. This shunting effect of alternating vasoconstriction/vasodilation is thought to remove inflammatory metabolites and thus promote faster healing. The thermal component provides pain relief.
I swear by the contrast method and so do a lot of athletes. It has nothing to do with being a pvss, it is just more effective. Of course, ice baths can work wonders on their own as well.

Take the james bond shower.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

So..... where does the golden shower fit in and what benefits does it provide? I am just asking....:crackup:
On a more serious note and something I am more down with. The contrast shower is getting easier to do and I look forward to it. It is a lot easier to start with lukewarm H2O then cold. I can tolerate that much better then starting cold from go.
