Do people sweat while they are swimming in the water?

Question

I know that after you swim laps and you get out of the water you might start sweating. But, when you are actually in the water swimming....do you sweat?

Answer 1

The Catalyst at Brown University did a studies that shows that yes you sweat while swimming but not as profusely as during other aerobic activities.

"After 295 observations, the results were in. Do you sweat when you swim? Sort of. Swimmers averaged a sweat rate of 123 milliliters per kilometer swum, but this number is significantly lower than average sweat rates for other types of exercise (about a third of the sweat rate for running and half that of cycling). So the answer to the burning question was yes and no. You do sweat when you swim, but because your body heat is conducted by colder pool water, you don’t sweat as much as you would exercising out of water."

So there you go. Can't argue with the scientists!!!

It all depends. If you are working really hard, to wear your face burns you actually are sweating, you just cant see it because your in the water and even know your in water you can still sweat and dehydrate because water is leaving your body, the only way to not sweat is to drink plenty of water.

Not unless you are swimming in really warm or hot water. The reason we sweat is to keep the body cool so it doesn't fry our insides. In water the water is keeping us cool so there is no reason to sweat.
