hot or cold showers post workout

[andy001]

I was talking to some guys in the shower today at the gym and we were talking about different types of showers post workout. One guy said that the top line bodybuilders take an ice cold shower to help their blood to flow throughout the body to feed the muscles post workout. The guy said imagine if you helped yourself just 1% doing that

I like COLD freezing showers after training, followed by hot shower to get the blood flowing again.

i have studied this shit for years and have tried everything via trial and error and read the science. and i have come to 1 conclusion for the best thing after a workout and nobody wants to hear the truth.

the best thing after a workout is sleep!!! yes sleep.

problem is 90% of people reading this thread get shit sleep. if you simply improve your sleep imagine

Contrast baths can and do help. But I'm with Stevesmi - get rest

No clue man. I adjust the water so I am comfortable. That is as much thinking as I put into it.
