  1. Incredibly useful heat recovery information in here!
    TLDR:
    -To cool down body, apply coolness to palms, soles of feet, forehead. (Fascinating physiological reason)
    -Not too cold or blood vessels will constrict and slow blood flow (not ice)
    -Not cool towel on back of neck because it will fool a sensor there into thinking body is already cooled off
