The more you sweat, the more calories you burn.
Not a chance. I always laugh when I walk into a gym and see a guy wearing one of those space suits, aka sauna suits or sweat suits. Even better, when he tells me he’s hitting the sauna after his workout to shed a few pounds. Even though these weight loss methods have been used for years, it doesn’t mean they are effective or good for you. The weight lost by using suits and saunas is entirely water weight and is only temporary. Once you begin drinking fluids again, the weight returns. The only way to burn a ton of calories is through activity and amount of sweat is determined by genetics, weather, clothing, type of activity, amount of water you drink or any combination thereof. Moral of the story: Start moving to burn those calories and stop using your sweat to gauge your intensity.
May the Force be with you…LOL!!
