6. You’ll Feel Less Cold

It’s not exactly pleasant to stand under running ice-cold water for 30 seconds, we get it. But if you can program your body to tolerate it, chattering teeth and all, you might also be able to program it to handle things better when the colder months roll around.
Simply put, since your body is already used to extreme temperatures, it will fare better when it comes to warming itself up naturally when the weather is cold – which will help you get through winter in a much easier fashion.
