Does Sweating Burn Calories | Help Make You Lose Weight

Does sweating burn calories | Does sweating help you lose weight | does sweating make you lose weight

Does sweating burn calories? This video will answer this question, and similar questions like does sweating help you lose weight? Even though these two questions seem very similar because both are about sweating it does not mean they are. Weight and fat are two entirely different things, and that is what I try to explain in this video.

Let's start with answering does sweating make you lose weight. The answer to this question is an overwhelming yes. There are athletes such as wrestlers that use sweating as a means to cut weight for a competition. Some of these guys can lose 25-30 lbs or more in 5 days. That is incredible. Our body is mostly made up of water, so it makes sense that sweating helps you lose weight.

I saved the first question until now because there is not an easy answer to the question; does sweating burn calories? When you sweat it is many times in hotter environments or during intense activities that increase your body temperature. Both of these scenarios lead to a higher heart rate which in turn will result in more calories burned during the workout. This is of course in comparison to a workout that would be less intense such as steady state cardio at room temperature. To some this may sound great, but like I said this topic is not an easy one to get to the bottom to.

Since the workout becomes more intense we begin to dip into our glycogen and carbohydrates for energy over our fat stores. That's right our body begins to crave carbohydrates instead of body fat. Now this does not mean that sweating a lot, or working out in very hot environments will burn less fat than steady state cardio. This is because you will be taking a smaller percentage of fat burn from a larger number of total calories burnt during intense exercise.

For example:

Steady State Cardio: Burns 60% from fat of 500 calories = 300 calories from fat burnt
Intense/Hot Exercise: Burns 40% from fat of 1200 calories = 480 calories from fat burnt

There have been studies however, that show the exact opposite. Some studies found that to burn fat more efficiently your better off being cold. When you are cold it activates the release and transition of brown fat.

Does sweating burn calories? The best answer I have for this question is yes but it is a very small amount extra. Not only that, but if you are looking at this question from an approach of a quick or easy fix your kidding yourself. I promise you there is no quick fix. What you have to do is concentrate on working out hard and eating clean consistently, over the course of time. That is how you will burn many calories and lose weight. Don't drive yourself crazy with such questions, I know I did, and it turns out that it hardly makes a difference.

You got me. It's 90 degrees outside, and inside my car is around 105. I was planning on sitting in the car for a couple hours to get rid of tummy fat.

I find your videos very funny and informative at the same time. As a person who IS overweight, I have found that the common thread of truth in your vids ARE NO SHORTCUTS. After trying to lose weight with shortcuts for sooo long I've found that trying them has only made me GAIN. Now that I've come to my senses and decided to do this the RIGHT way, the way I should've done it 20 years ago, your vids are confirmation that I'm FINALLY on the right track. The truth may hurt some people when you say "stop being lazy" but hey hopefully they learn sooner than later ARE NO SHORTCUTS!!! tfs😅

For me, keeping my body/ muscles warm makes the workout feel easier and I seem to have less soreness after so I'm better able to workout the next day. Also, my heart rate seems higher when I wear a neoprene pants/ waist trimmer and sweating just FEELS good like I'm doing more work. So it doesn't directly make you lose more weight, but I feel by making the workout more comfortable, motivating, and less sore after increases the chances that you'll be consistent with exercising.

is it bad I was eating cookies while watching this?

[sharonvitale]

You shouldn't call people lazy and stupid. A lot of us want to know some advice on what to ADD to our exercise routine, NOT a short cut. We go to your videos for some advice on how to improve. There is no need for you to be so insulting.

The last bit about people looking for a quick fix is kind of stupid. I've been getting up at 6am to fit my boxing sessions into my schedule so i can get to the office on time. And the reason why i watched this is to figure out if it matters that i'm losing weight even if i dont sweat as much. Not everyone that watches this is being lazy.

[magallanthepenguin]

I had to help my dad dig dirt to find and repair under ground water pipe in summer right now and oh God I had to rest ever 5 mins in the shade and under the shades, less hot but the air is still hot... I am just glad I walked out of it

[ya_mother-nick.sturniolo]

I was just trying to see if my sweatband would help and he started roasting me for something that isn’t true because I sweat my ass of and have committed to a calorie deficit for 3 months
