This Video Is About The Advantages Of Voluntary Controlled Cold Exposure. From Best To Less Beneficial:
1. swimming in cold water
2. cold showers
3. walking outside and being cold

Advantagers:
- more brown fat tissue (mitochondria, so higher calorie-usage)
- much more dopamine
- training in stress coping and more stimulation of the parasympathic system after the cold-exposure
- better mental acuity
- anti-inflammation after exercise (you can do cold-exposure up to 4 hours later), helps to diminish/prevent DOMS
- more testosteron

I also recommend this video, here a female medical doctor explains the advantages, she researched cold exposure for her PhD and she wrote a book about winterswimming which is popular in Denmark.
