I didn’t know so I looked it up. Looks like more body fat compared to body size is the key, regardless of gender. > [1] No significant gender differences in total metabolic heat production normalized for body mass or surface area were found among subjects who completed 90 min of immersion (9 women and 7 men). Nor was there a gender difference in the overall percent contribution ( approximately 60%) of fat oxidation to total heat production.…On the basis of the above findings, we accept the first hypothesis that women and men exhibit similar changes in body cooling and M˙ during cold water immersion at rest when subject responses are corrected for BF and size.
