Indoor temperatures don't count. I'm talking about the weather.

Coldest for me was probably 14°C (I live in a tropical country) and the hottest was 48°C when i was traveling in June this year.

I know you said indoor temperatures don’t count, but my low is kinda fun: -110c for three minutes (cryotherapy). Outdoor was 48c (local thermometer said higher) in northern Western Australia.

I know nothing about cryotherapy: were you awake for that?? What was the experience like?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, awake. Stood in a giant freezer wearing only shorts, socks and a mask. It’s a way to enhance healing by encouraging white blood cell production via shocking the system through lowering skin temp rapidly. Very good for muscular issues, arthritis, etc. I just did it once for fun, but I could really go for a bulk set sessions… getting old.
