Yea, it definitely gets tougher, and I switched from cold only to hot and then cold right before I get out. It's something. Not always but probably above 50%.

Yea, it definitely gets tougher, and I switched from cold only to hot and then cold right before I get out. It's something. Not always but probably above 50%. I found myself showering less often when I was forcing myself only cold, so I told myself I don't have to do cold! I do regret it a little if I skip cold completely, but sometimes it's only for 30-60 seconds. Also I saw a video which changed how I view it: it said cold creates "positive stress". So, when I feel the initial shock, I know it's stressful, but I also know its good.
