The only time I really work up a good sweat during a lift is on leg day. My heart rate sky rockets.

I push myself weights wise on all my other days of lifting, but I just don't sweat much at all.

Thinking about running a quick mile before my lifts to maybe try and get my heart rate up before even starting.


Anyone else have this problem? Or do you (like my friends) start sweating after the first set of anything.

I either sweat like I just got out of a swimming pool with all of my clothes on or not at all like yesterday. Never an in between. It's weird.

Also wanted to add, I'll sweat like a damn animal if I jump rope between sets. Keeps the heart rate up and going. Def gets me dripping pretty good

I barely sweat but my gym is pretty cool with fans all over. I also don't sweat ever outside of the gym.

I'm blessed I don't require much deodorant.

I'm a heavy sweater in general. 30 minutes of walking on an incline treadmill will have me drenched, but if it's not Squat, deadlift, or powerclean, I don't sweat (lifting wise).

I could bench all day and not break a sweat. Odd.

I know a guy in the gym that has to take 2 sets of clothes and change mid workout.

High intensity, low reps.. I sweat like crazy.

Lower intensity, higher reps.. I sweat much less.

working out in a garage like I do tends to have me drenched.

I never sweat unless it's 90 degrees or more outside and I have been running

I do this before Everytime I lift. I'm way too stiff and feel like I'm not going to get a good workout at all if I don't.
