...to disappoint you but once you quench the metal that has been super-cooled you lose all of the advantages of the cryogenic state.
It's a simple matter of physics that cannot be bypassed. That "change in energy" state that you refer to is static. Depending on the material (obviously, many organic substances do not take kindly to being cryogenically enhanced) there will be little if no permanent change once ambient temperature is restored to more "normal" levels.
However, I'm curious to know the alledged "positive effects of cryogenic treatment".
