Stop getting in cold baths to burn calories. Seriously. Stop it.

hoechstpoetisch:

I always see this picture: 

and it’s wrong wrong wrong wrong. It’s complete bullshit and dangerous. I mean, ok, everything we do is fucking unhealthy but somehow works, but this won’t.

Hot baths are definitely more comfortable and more efficient. You burn about 80% of your TDEE in an hour which is – in my case – about 140kcal.

Comparison: A cold bath burns about 30% of your TDEE in an hour which is – again, in my case – about 105kcal. And you’re risking the health of your lungs and bladder.

So let’s just spread another picture, ok?
