One week in and I feel amazing!
I used to box and weighlift heavy so i needed this type of thing cause my nerves would literally feel like 
inside
So i got on this cold shower wave. Turning gradually just prolongs the torture. Just switch it immediately to the coldest setting and stand there STIFF and STILL as hell, eyes clenched shut and fight that **** mentally. I usually stand there eyes closed like:omg: Focus the water to hit that spot on the back of your neck. like so:
that spot is really the heart of the nervous system, and once that area gets over the shock of the freezing cold, it gets easier from there. Stay in that water, still as **** until you FEEL your heart start beating faster, like you feel it beating deep and heavy. Stay for about another 20-30 seconds(circulation takes about 23 seconds to do a full cycle), then you can get out.
Its torture brehs, but believe me, it works if you work out heavy, its good for your skin, great for circulation, and will WAKE you up like
Its a mental exercise too, dont run from it, stand there and focus on the torture mentally. When you done, believe me, for the next hour or so, you goin step out feeling strong as an OX

I've seen athletes take ice baths all the time. I've been considering doing this for a while.
