Choose Hard #25 - Cold Water Immersion Explained: Mental Resilience, Muscle Growth, & Overall Health
In this episode of The Choose Hard Podcast, we’re diving into the cold—literally. I explore the transformative benefits of cold plunging and cold water immersion, focusing on how it impacts muscle growth, strength gains, overall health, and mental resilience.
To back it up with science, I review 5 different research studies that break down the 4 following benefits:
How cold immersion influences muscle growth and recovery.
The effects of cold exposure on strength development and performance.
The mental health benefits; which include stress resilience, mood regulation, neurotransmitter production, and neurodegenerative disease prevention.
For each benefit, I simplify the research and provide practical takeaways to help you integrate cold exposure into your routine. Whether you're chasing fitness goals, looking for a mental edge, or aiming to improve your health, this episode delivers evidence-based insights you can act on. Tune in and discover why cold water immersion might just be the best, OR potentially the worst, tool for your body and mind!
