Default Preventing colds

As a practitioner of Systema I employ several Russian Health methods that have been passed down from Vladimir Vasiliev. The main one is the water training. I pour a bucket of cold water over my head every morning and every night. When you body reacts to the cold water, it increases your core temperature very rapidy to almost fever levels. This burst of heat within the body kills any viruses including dormant ones.Your temperature then returns to normal. By following this routine, I have successfulyy avoided a single cold since starting this training. Now we are entering the interesting stage as we are almost in winter and you can imagine the looks I get from my neighbours as they watch me standing outside in the dark, semi-clothed pouring a lrage bucket of water over my head!
