Habits
Planned Cold Exposure Habit
Deliberate cold exposure is intentional, repeatable cooling for resilience and recovery—not uncontrolled hypothermia. Dose should match training phase and sleep quality.
Deliberate cold exposure is planned, repeatable cooling—showers, plunges, or cool walks—not accidental hypothermia. Goals include resilience, mood alertness, and soreness relief; dose must match sleep, stress, and training phase.
