Summary
While there is some belief that cold showers may prevent muscle growth and strength gains, the effects are not likely to be so robust that they completely prevent improvements. Incorporating cold exposure training away from strength and hypertrophy training is recommended, but if it can only be done immediately after exercise, it likely won't prevent progress.
