then why do people go to saunas?


Answers:

In short, yes, but I wouldn't recommed it. All you are losing is water, salt and some other electrolytes. If you want to exercise in hot weather (and still lose weight) you need to keep very hydrated, as your body does not work as well when you are even slightly dehydrated! The best rule of thumb is every pound of weight from sweating that you lose, you need to replace it with a cup of water.
