I go to the gym 6 days per week and I've been using the sauna after every session. I think it's been helpful, but I'm not sure if this is a meme or not. Are saunas worth using if you're not overweight?
Saunas
Other urls found in this thread:
yes. hot feels good. relaxes the muscles, opens pores on face, sweat out all the bad bad.
doesn't do much except make you feel good
Does it help with gains at all?
Do you like it? Go there. Dont like it? Dont go. What a great thread OP
No, you lose gains.
If it makes going to the gym a better experience for you, do it. If you don't like doing it, then don't.
There's actually studies out there that suggest using saunas increase your GH levels. Look it up
On my rest day I go to the gym, spend half an hour stretching and foam rolling everything, and then spend 20 mins in the sauna. I think it helps.
They're great for recovery and improving blood circulation. Regular use is also linked to a longer lifespan
stop posting this fat fuck
Too soon man. Rip Zyzz
stfu twink
Basically this.
Just to ramble, I'm stupid and tend to be dehydrated when I use them so I get sick and have to leave, tried chugging water once before then ended up having to run to the toilet to puke for about 10 minutes, people were concerned enough to tell gym staff
Might have been from accidentally swallowing dude weed smoke the previous day since I was having burps from that all day
Just don't wear your shoes and blast music like the cretins at my gym
t. no home sauna
>feels bad man
what do you guys wear in the sauna?
i workout in sweats and i dont want to look like a retard sitting in a sauna with sweatpants on
Naked with a towel and flip flops
norm in my gym is either laying your towel down on the bench and sitting naked, or sitting with only a towel.
towel
wtf
would never do that/10
Everyone in the world does this but Americans - have no idea why.
Why?
my gym has a sauna that I've never used, but I guarantee noone else goes in naked. (except maybe creepy old men)
They probably wear swim trunks at the very least.
I wanna use the sauna but I don't want to have to change out of my sweatpants into swimtrunks just to use the sauna.
Just wear a towel, you should have one anyways for showering
What’s a GH
gay hate
Growth Hormone
I go home and shower
Why?
don't want to use the nasty gym showers
lockerroom smells bad too
So you just stink up everywhere you go until you get home? Your car must smell like shit
What the fuck is wrong with Americans, the Puritans really fucked them up
i dont smell great on the way home but its not like the smell lingers in my car
I get home, shower, and i'm good
Anything to avoid being naked I suppose
Americans are weird
yup.
casually being naked next to strangers is weird bro.
this i wish we americans were more comfortable with our bodies and had Greek tier male bonding
((they)) are already trying to push everyone towards normalizing homosexuality
Teenagers understandably like privacy in locker rooms because they're all judgemental towards each other and all the crazy stuff that goes with puberty. But part of growing up is realizing that bodies aren't things to be ashamed of and not being terrified of other people seeing you naked. If you're too prudish to shower at the gym, you're still a boy instead of a man.
i mean its not gay unless you make it gay
hanging out in hot springs or bathhouses with other dudes has been normal in europe and asia since ancient times like
why not the USA
It used to be normal in the US as well - wasn't until the 90s that it became taboo.
I live literally 5 minutes away from my gym.
I'm gonna shower at home to avoid all the disgusting shit that randoms bring in (athletes foot, herpes, a fucking COLD, anything).
You wear flip flops around the locker room, donkus. Especially in the wet areas. You're at far more risk of getting any of those things just by handling the gym equipment than you are using the locker room.
its weird that when america was generally more conservative there wasnt any stigma, and that nowadays of all times everyone seems more prudish in this one specific environment
Posting this from the gym sauna post-workout...
careful with that, i hear it ruins the battery
You in the sauna vs the chad not afraid of his body sitting next to you
Flip flops and basketball shorts no underwear though. Mine is in the womens locker so its already awkward enough not getting full naked
Naked of course. You are meant to be naked in sauna. Use a towel if you are afraid of others looking at your miniscule penis.
This
Its either a fat boomer rambling and ripping ass or some nigger blasting his music no one wants to hear. Be quiet in the sauna.
>be 14 young man
>cousin's cottage at sipoo

>take a proper sauna, go drink naked and back to sauna
>exchange suggestive looks and smiles with cousins but nobody's saying anything yet
>my and my cousin's parents have had enough of the heat and they go get some wine and light the barbecue
>me and my two astounding cousins are naked side by side

>"me neither, I thought you'd like it"
>never talk about shit-episode with father again
If some idiot is in the sauna blasting music, you should throw more water on the stones, that'll clear it up.
Any time I'm in a sauna abroad and heat the sauna up a bit more, 90% of the dudes inside just leave while angrily glancing at me. Don't use a fucking sauna if you can't take the heat. Those who stay are usually pretty brotier though.
Based ESL sauna schizoposter. I’m quite literally crying laughing right now
And Europe is gayer
What the fuck this cracks me up every time.
>Don't have to go into a disgusting gym shower if you don't shower at all.
5/5 if true :D
grip handiness
normalising homosexuality does the opposite, we need to be able to do shit without that assumption. it has lead everyone's first thought to be of gayness not just friendly bonding
>mans not hot
big shaq got BIG
Just sit on the towel naked like in every country with developed sauna culture. Remember, no sweat on the wood or I will find you and fuck your ass user.
>"I'll shit on your back now, son"
I really really really like this image
anyone have experience with home infrared saunas?
I heard a lot of good things about sauna but my gym doesn't have a sauna.
What do you advice ? Find an independant sauna or change gym membership to one with a sauna ?
Also is it not dangerous for (kinda) fat bois ? I'm working on my cardio atm but it is still kinda weak so I'm afraid to have some kind of problem with my cardiovascular system.
If sauna was dangerous then 70% of Finland would be dead right now. Sauna is dangerous if you roid, Zyzz learned that the hard way. So as long as you're clean, it's all good.
The fuck does weight have to do with sauna lmao retard lmao
>Mental relaxation doesnt help
Pleb
all i trust is the iron bar, beer and bacon!
not youself ?
>US has the highest gay pride parade and standing gay population on the planet
>says Europoors are gayer
kek
Yes, especially if you shower after with cold water.
Techniques for recuperation like this are cryotherapy and baths of contrast.
Cold water provokes vasoconstriction (veins and arteries become smaller)
Hot water causes vasodilation (blood vessels become dilated) .
The contrast in temperatures causes a torrent of blood to go to extremities and helps to eliminate toxins, bring nutrients and reduce inflamation.
This is from a book by loren landow, a coach who has trained over 500 pros on the ufc, nfl and beisball league.
If you don't sauna naked you won't get the blessings of the sky god.
Simple as.
Based and ukkopilled
zyzz had an undiagnosed birth defect of the heart, that's why he died. seeing how saunas get your heart pumping really hard it probably triggered his condition.
Remember how any time a youtuber or a magazine recommends exercises they say that you should consult your physician before starting? Yeah, do that shit Anons.
Not funny at all.
You still believe that you fucking simp? He was on DNP before he went to the sauna.
>Consulting a physician before going to a fucking sauna
Actually lmaoing at ur life in Finnish
If you wear a towel or swimming trunks in a Finnish sauna, everyone will assume you’re either gay or have micro pee-pee
He was on coke and MDMA.
naked
yes, very good for circulation and helping relax
don't know what temperatures you burgers go to though, anyone care to share? every sauna I've been to abroad wasn't let to go very high, stayed around 60C tops
t. finn
I agree with trunks but why would gays hide their dick
Are Finnish men gay? What happenes if they're comfortable and relaxed in a hot environment and they see big dicks around? They would get conditioned to suck it.
That doesn't make it hotter, it just becomes more humid. It's sauna etiquette to ask everyone in there with you if its OK to do.
to hide their chub
You expect that amerishart to know a thing about social etiquette?
Water thrown on the stones evaporates and becomes hot gas that then disperses in the sauna, making the sauna feel hotter. Either you're arguing about semantics or have never been in a real sauna. Also
>Asking people whether or not you can throw some löyly
Nobody does that because it's what you do in a sauna. If a sauna is full of dudes just chilling and not throwing löyly then they aren't there to actually be in a fucking sauna.
Saunas are only dangerous if you have a heart defect and only if you stay in them for too long. Nobody's going to drop dead after five minutes in a sauna. If you're not heart healthy then just do shorter stays.
No. The etiquette stands if you can't handle the heat, you can use the door to exit and let the big boys enjoy the löyly
Finnish home saunas are generally unisex so I'm not sure why you don't think this would apply to all Finnish men
Water vapor convects temperature better than dry air.
kek
He also was on a bunch of drugs. Stimulants + sauna = bad
>forgetting the drugs he was on
it was a bog combo of roids, stimulants, possibly dnp/clen and his heart condition, sauna then greatly increased his chances of receiving a critical hit
>They would get conditioned to suck it.
they aren't all you
its also sauna etiquette to not blast music you bellend
Are those fucking Vapormaxes?! This guy is sweating down 200$ shoes....
Bretty shidd desu, tried a high-tier system in Austria.
>sauna
what a pleb
>Wanting to be a roach
Holy shit lmao
That makes a lot of sense, I will do that next time. Seems like it's beneficial overall. Right now I'm trying to do 2 15 minute sessions, but I puss out in the second set around the 10 minute mark.
