Cold water plunge continues, finally hitting Baltic temps under 6 Celsius about 40 Fahrenheit.
Only 5 minutes today but water if finally baltic temps under 6c about 40 Fahrenheit now. No warmup, so I have something to improve on today. My foot was impacted jogging downhill earlier in the week so I havn't gone jogging as I give it and my ankles and calf muscle time to heal so I don't cause progressive injury. None the less my hands went rigid fairly quickly in the water today. I think the water temp drops extensively in the shallow shore areas after snowfall so water temps may be colder. I am oddly not experiencing that capillary tingling that I did a few times early on in doing these plunges. My hands this time however were quite rigid, and that was the reason I got out as usually I use my hands or feet as the litmus when I start loosing feeling in them or they stop working, IE blood circulation is reduced. Even after rewarming for a little while after my finger tips were still a little numb. IMO warming up with exercise drastically promotes the length and comfort level as it increases circulation in general allowing function. I also noticed that the slip hazard is imo the real risk at this point as cold water dropping into snow forms ice almost instantly in freezing temperatures making getting dressed a little more cautioned. Overall still feeling good, temperatures still arn't so low I feel at risk, just a little sense of waling into a cold puddle initially then waiting for the hands or feet to go numb, then getting dressed and getting the feeling back in the hands and feet. On return to home I do a rewarming shower. Then keep myself warmly dressed or in sleeping bag until the chill or afterdrop is defeated. I would like to do this then do exercise after, so warmup dip and then exercise to rewarm as output levels are easier after the body is core cooled imo likely some adrenal response also as there is a lot more clarity after going into the water, it wakes you up good.
