First and foremost, if you wonder about a black eye, I procured it during the last MMA training, and it's a sure sign from Miltras that he favors our great endeavor.
Now, also, before I begin to elaborate on today's topic, I would just like to say a few words.
Because every once in a while I say to myself, okay, cool.
Focus on what you are grateful for.
Because it's very good for your soul to do so every once in a while.
To just say to yourself, what am I grateful for?
And I would just like to thank you all.
First and foremost, thank you for being subscribed.
It means a lot.
Also, a huge, massive thank you to all of my Patreons and everyone who supports me.
Because it means a lot.
You enable me to commence this great endeavor.
And without your help, I couldn't have done it.
So massive thank you.
I have said it before and I'll continue to say it because it means extremely much.
And it's also a very sure sign of trust that you trust that you have faith in me.
It's fucking awesome.
And I just want to say this every once in a while that I am appreciative of all the support I get.
And for everyone who spreads the word as it were, and also everyone who is getting fucking juicy after adhering to my teachings.
Because your time and effort, that's the ultimate sacrifice you can make to me.
That you say to yourself and say to me, like, oh, you know what?
I've started praying in the Temple of Iron after taking a glory spill.
So yeah, thank you very much to everyone who deserves a thank you, basically.
Now, I would just like to answer a commonly asked question, and that is my thoughts on cold showers.
Now, I thought to elaborate on this topic and I waited a few months doing so because I obviously wanted to start taking cold showers before I said anything because I always want to first obtain enlightenment before talking about stuff.
So anyway, a few months I've taken cold showers.
Or to be perfectly technical, it's called Scottish showers.
So you begin with lukewarm water basically and then you turn it down to the lowest at the end of your shower.
So you spend like a minute or two under the coldest shower.
Now you can read up on the health benefits below in an article.
So you see there are some good health benefits right there.
Now the reason I continued cold showers or Scottish showers is simply because of the sensation I get about 20 minutes afterwards.
So if I compare a hot shower 20 minutes afterwards and a cold shower 20 minutes afterwards, I feel much more fresh and alert and energetic, basically after a cold shower.
And for me it's an absolute luxury to feel fresh and alert because that means I can be productive and that's obviously what I want to be able to be as much of the time as possible.
So that is basically why I continue to do it.
I started doing it for two reasons.
Just for my own enlightenment and then also to give a solid answer and I obviously need to have tried it before I give a solid answer.
So that's why I started it.
I continued to do it because of the sensation I get after the shower.
Now if you want to try this a mental technique I use is that I basically imagine that I'm a Viking Jarl and one of my men has fallen off board and I have to jump in and save him in the cold North Atlantic.
Might sound silly to some people but again just assure you that these sort of mental images and mental techniques are really good.
I use it in the gym all the time as well.
When it's a heavy set or a heavy session I visualize you know restarting battling gladiator to get a few extra sets.
Same thing in martial arts, when my cardio is lacking, I just envisioned the some cool scenes from 300.
But that's another topic.
I just wanted to let you know that you can use you can envision epic things to motivate yourself through certain endeavors that are a bit perhaps not pleasurable to begin with.
But then you get used to it, so now it's not a big deal to shower cold fucking juicy.
