The hype is too much. Anything that becomes a status symbol at expensive gyms makes me suspicious.
Everyone at my gym is suddenly doing cold plunges. Did anyone actually feel a real health benefit, or is it mostly hype?

Answers & Discussion
Cold showers helped my mood in the morning, but I would not call it life-changing. It felt more like a discipline habit.
For workout recovery, it helped me feel less sore, but sleep and stretching did more for me.
I tried it for a month and hated every second. Maybe it helps some people, but I was just cold and irritated.
