Significant release of norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and adrenaline during an ice bath is a fast way to boost energy.
Something a lot of us struggle with is our energy levels and whilst we recommend getting to the root cause of this, ice baths and cold showers are an quick and effective way to boost energy.
In cold water, your sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight response) is triggered.
This spikes the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine. This is essentially adrenaline, which causes you to feel more alert and focused.
Continuing cold water immersion overtime can lead to elevated levels of these energy boosting hormones.
Keeping you energised.
