Why is it so cold when you first get in the pool?

Why does my heart race when I first get in a cold pool?

  • On holiday for example when the pool is freezing cold, as soon as i get in my heart will beat really fast for a good five minutes, why why why?????????!

  • Answer:

    Because your body is trying to keep your body temperature stable so your heart beats faster to obtain more oxygen and energy until your body temperature is stable again.
