Slept poorly again and could have eaten healthier
The good:
Long fast
Two hour eating window
12k steps (nature walk with the kid)
Cold shower

Nice to see you adopting cold showers. 💪
Other than an endorphin rush do u feel anything?
Yes, extreme dread about stepping into the shower
lol, same here.
I remember how at the beginning I was always hyperventilating when in contact with cold water. Now, I don't anymore, or not as much. It's still a small shock to the system, but I don't need to mouth breathe anymore.
According to Wim Hof, cold shower is exercise for your vascular system and heart. He writes:
I wholeheartedly agree.
Is pain, pleasure?
No, but I wanted the lower resting heart rate benefit.
I actually had my blood pressure measured this morning during a routine examination at the hospital. At first I thought something was wrong because the nurse made a surprised "Oh!" but then I realised she was just positively surprised by the very good blood pressure and heart rate results. "That's what we want to see," she congratulated me.
I want to believe that my cold showers and my other routines (sleep! etc) have contributed to it. I have actually rarely felt so well, physically and mentally...
lol what about diet and exercise??
What is that benefit?
This blog post appeared on my oura app today.
This is exactly my experience with cold showers, I wrote about it here:

Why sleeping poorly?
Wife and kid coughing all night, heatwave, dog
Last night I had to drive my baby around in the car seat to get him to fall asleep. How I loathe that!
At least you something that works
