Lightbulb Cooling down
Is it smart to take a cold show after training? Does it decreas effectiveness of training or does it increase effectiveness or it doesn´t make any difference? What is smart to do?

For what purpose would you be taking the cold shower?

what sort of training? When i was running 20-30km I took an ICE cold bath for 10-15 mins afterwards, which helped enormously to decrease muscle soreness.

Because tag team spamming is hard, hot, and sweaty work! Hopefully someone will come along with a good suggestion in a few more hours.
