Shvitz

I have been using the "shvitz" at the club. It is amazing how many guys use this as their main form of working out. I mean there are guys in there that I never see in the workout area. Do they think that this will turn them into body builders?

I really like the few guys who think that working out in a sauna is a great idea. This has to be the quickest way to a heart attack that I can think of. Not only are these guys out of shape but lets start working out in something that mimics your stove.

The main benefit of a sauna are to sweat... and the benefits associated with deep sweating are:
  • Ridding the body of toxins
  • Cardiovascular workout
  • Relaxation and stress reduction
  • Induces a deeper sleep
  • Soothing relief to sore and stiff muscles and joints.
I use it after working out and get into a cold shower after. Nothing like it. Here is a link to some more information of sweat boxes.

The Sauna workout reminds me of those belt motorized abdominizer things from old magazines. The very idea that you can sit still and let something work *you* out is ludicrous.

Its like the Caffeine workout. Caffeine raises my heartrate, therefore its like taking exercise.
