Sauna Suits And Weight Loss
By Robert | March 14, 2009
A sauna suit is also known as a sauna exercise suit, workout sauna suit or a sauna sweat suit. It’s normally made of rubberized vinyl or nylon. Some are also made of plastic.
Athletes such as boxers and wrestlers sometimes use these sweat suits to rapidly drop pounds when they have a “weigh in” approaching.
And how does this happen?
These suits work by trapping heat inside. You sweat profusely because of your body’s increased attempt to stay cool. This is what a sauna sweat suit is made to do.
(Popular brands are Valeo, Bally and Everlast sauna suits)
There is potential danger, and I’ll get to that in one minute…
Are there any benefits of using a vinyl or nylon sweat suit?
These suits can aid in fast weight loss because they can maximize the shedding of water from your body.
You can drop lots of pounds in a short period of time. However, the loss will be water, and that takes me to my next point…
These nylon, plastic or vinyl sauna suits are advertised as workout or exercise suits that can help you lose lots of weight fast. This is an attempt to cash in on the lucrative weight loss industry.
You will lose weight in the form of sweat, which is water and electrolytes. The bad news is that it will come back when you drink water and replace what was lost.
Therefore, these so called workout or sauna exercise suits are not permanent weight loss solutions.
Danger!
As I mentioned before, these sweat suits act as heat traps. Your body has a much harder time cooling itself while wearing one, and your core temperature can potentially rise to dangerous levels if you exercise in one of these suits.
Extreme core temperature elevation can possibly lead to a heat stroke. Dehydration is possible as well because you lose lots of fluids.
On the flip side, there are users who say that wearing one of these plastic, nylon or vinyl sauna suits while exercising did help them lose weight faster.
My personal recommendation is to avoid them. If you insist on trying one, please be safe! Drink water before, during, and after, and monitor your body for any danger signals.
