Do you ever feel slow during a gaming session? Do you feel like the focus just isn’t there?

I feel this way pretty often and I want to share something with you that is amazingly easy to do while at the same time super effective like a shock from pikachu. I discovered this a few months ago and now all my showers are cold showers. When I feel slow and drowsy, especially while playing solo queue, I jump in the shower

I want to share the benefits of taking a cold shower with you.

What is a cold shower?

This might sound like a stupid question but a cold shower isn’t necessarily only showering in cold water. You can take your cold shower in different ways but if you want to try, I suggest trying this:

Start off by showering as you usually would with a comfortable temperature. Wash yourself like you always do. When you’re done with your normal routine (without standing in the shower doing nothing) turn the cold water on and stand in it for about 30 seconds to a minute. This will obviously be slightly uncomfortable but you’ll get used to the temperature after about 10 seconds and then you wont want to change it back. After a minute (I often go for longer than a minute) switch it back to normal temperature and stand in that until you’ve gotten used to it again. A minute or two should do the trick.

Do the same thing once more. After that you want to switch it back to cold one last time and then you are done! You always want to end on cold.

This will make your body work sort of like a pump.

So now, Why should you take cold showers?

There are many benefits to taking cold showers during your gaming sessions.

First of all you get a break. Breaks are good for a number of reasons and taking a cold shower is an awesome way of taking a break. You also get a bunch of energy and you’ll feel wonderful with a clearer head and a refreshed body. This will all translate into you playing better.

The benefits of taking a cold shower actually surprised me, I’ll list a few here:

It relieves depression

It keeps your skin and hair healthy

It improves circulation

Strengthens immunity – your number of white blood cells increase

and more

But most importantly, you feel like a million bucks! I can’t stress it enough, you will feel really refreshed afterwards.



To wrap this up – taking a cold shower makes you feel amazing and I really hope that you try it and fall in love with it as much as I have.

Hope this helps and GO TRY IT!

Until next time
