Sweating/Sauna suites?


Hello everyone, I'm a newbie to this forum!

I have two questions about cardio.

#1. When you are doing cardio (walking or running on a treadmill) where are you supposed to sweat? This may sound dumb, but it is something I would like to know. I only break a sweat in my upper body, my butt and legs get warm but never sweat. Is that normal?

#2. Are sauna suites safe? a couple of years ago I used to where them and I finally broke a sweat in my hip area whereing them. I heard that they weren't good to use. Can someone give me there opinion on this.

Thanks

Sweating during exercise is a very individual thing. It doesn't tell you much of anything. Don't be concerned about it.

If you are referring to sauna suits - forget them. They add no benefits to your workout and could conceivably even be harmful.

yeah thats normal. I believe it has to do with a genetic thing. Some people dont sweat at all when working out. Others (like me) sweat like a PIG ! ... anyway your fine.
