Yeah I didn’t know how it was possible to sit in 200 degrees and not die.
It’s apparently because there’s like. Zero humidity.
So you can kinda just chill.
If you ever get the chance, take a cold shower within a sauna
Best
Experience
Ever
... within?
How
I took one after. Was p nice.
As in having a shower within the sauna
I've had the pleasure, and it was amazing
I took like a 30 minute shower
How did you not die
Wouldn’t that make it intolerably humid in there
Mighty Spurdo genetics
Plus I think I've built up a tolerance with all the times I've made trips to the sauna
I was thinking of doing that
But it seems that most gyms want you to pay a large up front fee
If I can find one with a reasonable monthly price and no fee, though...
I got my parents to pay for a pretty pricy one for me, which was very nice of them. Kind of an unfortunate necessity here. My trip to the Y when I first came here was... interesting.
The one at my school was fine but there was literally always someone at the free weights area, never got a chance to get any lifting in.
Sauna after gym is a must
I go to a boxing gym and bought a crunch membership just to hit the sauna after
Sauna/jacuzi after working out actually has incredible anabolic effects
Interestingly enough high heat burns more calories to stay in as well
I work in 140F heat, 20 minutes on 20 minutes off
But I also always sauna after jiu jitsu. I feel like it helps with the aches and pains
I also read an article that Sauna releases more Hgh if you do it at least 4 times a week for over 20 minutes
Hate shoulder day
Boy I die
I think I’m mercilessly fucking up dumbbell shrugs
It’s my only thing today that doesn’t go until failure
Do I just need to use more weight?
dumbell shrugs?
How much weight?
45
Well, work up to that
Start at 30
4 sets
Use a barbell, and go heavy af
