Will sweating alone cause weight loss?!
Question:
Will sweating alone cause weight loss?
I was wondering, if I watched what I ate and did little to no exercise would I lose weight by sweating in a sauna ( of course drinking lots of water)?
Answers:
Sweating alone will not cause weight loss. In order to get your body into a fat burning state you have to engage in any physical activity that increases your heart rate to 55 to 90% of your maximum heart rate for a duration of at minimum 20 mins 3 times a week. To find your maximum heart rate subtract your age from 220. Not only will you be on your way to weight loss ( pending your diet ) but you will be strengthening your heart and increasing your lung capacity.
