I just started running on the treadmill at the gym, and after a quarter mile I'm sweating profusely--its embarassing to be next to someone on their third mile who isn't even breaking a sweat. The more I work out, will my body start sweating less? Or is this a pre-determined genetic thing? Anyone been in a similar situation?

Sweating is a good thing. Sweating releases toxins. You apparently have a high level of toxin build up. Drink more water to help release these toxins. Our bodies are made up of mostly water. Sweating will help you drop excess weight too. So keep on sweating!

I love the treadmill and I sweat like crazy. I am not satisfied unless my tight t-shirt is totally soaked ! I have been jogging and using the treadmill for about 3 years, sweat continues !
P.S. Because I sweat so much, I do not go to the gym unless I have taken a shower right before going !

Sweating profusely can be a good thing, since your body is effective in regulating your body temperature through sweating. But if you tend to sweat profusely even during minor activities, you may be experiencing hyperhidrosis. Consult your doctor if you think you are experiencing hyperhidrosis.

Sweat is release of heat from your body as a result of hydrogen bonding. And you may be sweating normally, however there is a condition called Hyperhidrosis as part of an underlying condition (secondary hyperhidrosis)
Some conditions can promote excessive sweating, as a rule involving the whole body:
* Hyperthyroidism or similar endocrine diseases
* Endocrine treatment for prostatic cancer or other types of malignant disease
* Severe psychiatric disorders
* Obesity
* Menopause

Sweating occurs when the temperature of your body is raised to such a point that the body feels it needs to cool itself off. Your body's temperature is a function of metabolism (I think...I could be wrong) and the main way to raise that is to increase your heart rate. Therefore, I believe (this is an assumption), when your endurance increases and your heart rate is lower because it is stronger and doesn't have to beat as many times to circulate bood, then your body will heat up slower and therefore you'll sweat less.

To be honest, I think I sweat more! The people who are not sweating may not be pushing themselves as hard as you are! Sweating is good for the body!

This is true, the fitter you become, thelonger it takes for you to work up a sweat, unless of course you tried an entirely new sport one day and you were't using the same muscles.
