Brian asked yesterday to share your daily routine - great post, with a lot of fantastic content. When I posted I talked about doing a cold shower every morning. I wanted to share the benifits of this with you. Think about adding this to your routines. Have a great day! 1. Builds Mental Resilience Why: Cold exposure triggers your “fight-or-flight” response, but practicing calm breathing teaches your body to adapt. Benefit: Increased mental toughness, sharper focus, and better stress management throughout the day. How long: Start with 30–60 seconds under cold water, build to 2–3 minutes. 2. Boosts Energy & Alertness Why: Cold water spikes norepinephrine, a neurotransmitter that increases alertness and mood. Benefit: Natural morning energy without caffeine crashes. Tip: Do it first thing in the morning for a “reset” that wakes up your nervous system. 3. Strengthens the Immune System Why: Short-term cold exposure stimulates white blood cell production and immune activity. Benefit: Reduced risk of colds and faster recovery from illness. Routine: A daily cold finish after your normal warm shower is enough to get benefits. 4. Improves Circulation & Heart Health Why: Cold constricts blood vessels; warming back up dilates them. This is like exercise for your vascular system. Benefit: Better circulation, healthier blood pressure, stronger heart function. Tip: Alternate 30 seconds cold / 60 seconds warm for 3–4 cycles. 5. Supports Fat Loss & Metabolism Why: Cold activates brown fat, which burns calories to generate heat. Benefit: Slight metabolic boost and improved insulin sensitivity. Tip: Stay in cold water for 2–5 minutes if using a plunge. 6. Enhances Exercise Recovery Why: Cold reduces inflammation and soreness after workouts. Benefit: Faster recovery and less muscle pain. When: Best after intense training or competition, not every single workout (to avoid blunting muscle growth). 7. Improves Mood & Lowers Anxiety Why: Cold exposure increases endorphins and “happy” brain chemicals.

OK, so by introducing yourself you are guaranteed to get to level 2 - it's really that easy and I LOVE learning more about the cool people in this group. Feel free to share where you're from, why you're here, what you do for a living, and what you like about style. Are you a watch guy, suit guy, fragrance guy, or maybe just getting started?
