Does more sweat during an exercise me more fat loss?

Question

I heard that the more you sweat during an exercise the more fat you end up buring? is this true. like if i go outside and run for an hour in a thick coat or something just trying to keep my self more hot

Answer 1

no, it means the more water you loose;
to burn fat it is best to exercise for more than 20 minutes per session (continuous exercise), your body typically burns it's glycogen stores for the first 20 minutes BEFORE it begins to burn fat. That is why most aerobic exercise sessions are for thirty minutes.

NO! Please don't do it. First off, losing sweat is just losing water weight. Loss of water from the body is what causes dehydration. 2-5% of body weight is mild dehydration, 6-8 % is moderate dehydration, and 9-15 % is severe. A loss greater than 15% is usually fatal. Signs of dehydration include extreme thirst, dry mouth, small or no urine output, and signs of shock (low blood pressure, racing pulse, cool clammy or hot, dry skin) when dehydration gets severe.

Another complication is Heat Stroke. When you do heavy exercise in hot weather with layered clothing, your body can't cool down fast enough. Your temp. can go all the way up to 107 F and cause brain damage. Sighs of heat exhaustion include paleness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, fainting, and a moderately increased temperature (101-102 degrees F). Signs of heat stroke include warm, flushed skin, inability to sweat, a very high temperature (106 degrees F or higher), delirium, unconsciousness, and seizures.

The easiest way to lose fat is to do strength training in the area you want to lose fat on. There is also a fat burning heart rate and it's below the cardio heart rate. It's about 50-60 % of your maximum heart rate, so if you exercise at that level, you're more likely to burn fate.

Sweat During Workout

Answer 6

Hi there!

You received bad information. Generally speaking, heat causes you to sweat more in order to keep your body cool. It has little to do with calorie burn; however, people falsely make this connection since when at room temperature, you heart rate goes up during exercise which causes you to sweat more. Sweat is a by-product of burning calories not the cause of it.

What burns fat is using more calories than you consume, thereby creating a calorie deficit. Thus, the energy needed to fuel your body during exercise comes from your body fat stores.

While sweating by itself is not a way to burn more body fat, increasing your heart rate is. The higher your heart rate is, the more calories your body burns for a given time. Thus, cardio is great for burning calories since it keeps your heart rate high for a long time.

One caveat about water weight. It is true that you can lose weight via sitting in a sauna and doing nothing. HOWEVER, this is short term water weight, not body fat. Do not be confused. It will come back as soon as you start replenishing your body with liquids as it should. It is not healthy to be dehydrated.

Thus, unless you are weighing in for a professional fight or something, don't try to sweat to lose weight. Rather create a calorie deficit for yourself.

Good luck on your diet and fitness goals!

Stick with it Nate! I go crazy when I see someone on the bicycle reading! Yes you need to sweat. This means you are working muscle and elevating the heart rate. Add one minute or two a week until you are up to 30 minutes. Then try increasing the resistance or speed say 10 % If you can work up to an hour, you are seriously converting excess body fat and giving your whole body a great workout. I try to switch machines to exercise different muscles. Another huge benefit to sweating is it helps the body remove toxins. If you are focusing on a healthy diet along with the exercise, you will "detoxify" your body through sweat, respiration, liver, and kidneys. Be sure to drink water before, during, and after your workout. I make my own sports drink with a splash of lemon juice and a pinch of salt in a quart of water. Luck.

Myth! If you’re working out to lose weight, and you always look forward to losing one or two pounds after an especially sweaty workout, you might be in for a bittersweet surprise.

The bitter: the amount of weight you lose during a workout is water weight. Exercise makes body temperatures rise, and naturally, the body likes to maintain a very even temperature and sweating allows the body to cool itself. This loss of fluids is necessary for the body to maintain homeostasis (a constant state of balance) and to function properly, but this fluid must be replaced right away so as to avoid dehydration, which is actually very dangerous. Drinking plenty of water before, during and after a workout is very important!

The sweet: Exercise is great for cardiovascular health and for burning fat! The time you spend in the gym is invaluable to your metabolism, giving it the boost it needs to help you burn fat, even while at rest! The water-weight you lose during an especially sweaty workout will (and should) come back right away, but a slow-steady exercise routine will keep the weight off...for good!

Answer 9

No, it does not. Some people just sweat more than others. The more you work out, the more fat you'll burn. Just wearing extra clothes won't make you lose any more fat. It will just make you lose more water and then you risk becoming dehydrated.
