Okay, that is a slight exxageration. I sweat, but it's not nearly as much as other people go through when they do exersise of the same difficulty. Instead, my skin gets amazingly greasy, as if I haven't showered in days, even if I had showered five minutes beforehand. Anyone know why this happens?

People that do not sweat do not have enough water in their diet. remember, we all need 8-12 8oz glasses of water every day, as adults. You are probably suffering from dehydration, and should be very careful because it has serious effects. Talk to your doctor about it. OH!!! And drinking juice or tea is not enough, you need ACTUAL water....

People all sweat at different rates so you can't really compare yourself to others. Sweating is the bodies way of lowering it's temperature when it gets too hot. Working out increases your body temperature therefor you sweat. Your bodies core temperature may be lower than others so may be able to work out harder before you have to sweat as much to lower your temp to a safe level.
Medications can also effect sweating. If you are on any medications, check their side effects to make sure that is not one of them.
You should be fine when working out, just make sure that you are not starting to feel light headed, and if you do stop right away. If you are still concerned you can do a simple experiment of taking your temperature before and after working out to make sure that you temperature is still normal.

Some people just naturally sweat more than others. My husband can work up a sweat tying his shoe laces, but my mother will pass out before she starts sweating. I'm more like you--it's more like a thin film than an all-out sweat.

this happens when u are not in shape. well there is some fat people who sweat a lot by doing anything, but if u are a normal person and u started excercicing, or are not in a great shape yet, well that is the problem, because ur body is not used to it yet, because sweating is like a cooling down process and if ur body is not used to it, then that is why

I have heard that when a person is working out, they start sweating when they get used to the excercise. As long as you are losing weight, it doesn't matter.

same thing happens wtih me, and its one of two things: either you dont sweat easily, or, you could be very dehydrated. Sometimes its a combination of both. sometimes also the type of excersise (ex. i sweat more when running or biking than when benching or lifting wieghts). drink plenty of liquids, thats probably part of it.

i don't know but if you want to sweat like other people then run before you work-out that will help you to sweat i'm talking about running in place for about 5 min.

You probably need more salt. Gatorade is high in sodium, I suggest you drink some.
