Sauna vs steam room
ad
Gym just added a steam room, right next to the sauna. It's about as hot as Afghanistan under a C-131 wing in the shade. I seem to be the only one going into the steam room. Initially I did it because there's a creepy naked Vietnam vet doing sit ups around the same time I was going. I couldn't help to laugh and he took offense, long story short, I avoid the sauna.
I haven't changed much in weight but I am more vascular at 15 mins steam room vs 30 mins sauna. I'm not a mathematician but 15 mins and better results seem like a no brainer.
Anyone else have 2 cents to add?

elbowSteam all the way clears your chest n toxins in no time ...only thing that I wonder is does it push the juice through you quicker n make it less productive??????food for thought does with all over toxins as far as I know so would imagine it would Ps if you need a translator I get Mrs on it later xx
To answer your question: NO, a steam room does not "push" the "juice" through you "quicker."
Testosterone is broken down at a metabolic level, molecule by molecule. Warming your body up in a steam room will have negligible effects on that metabolic process.
The real magic of a steam room is simple. RELAXATION.
That might sound dumb, but it's not. Stress is the real killer in our country. Stress kills your heart, it kills your gains, and it flat out makes life miserable. Taking ten minutes to breath in a little steam simply calms the mind (and body) to a point where you can eliminate immediate stress. Kiss that excess cortisol goodbye. When you're relaxed (in general) you'll grow, you'll be stronger, and you'll have more fun in life than if you're tense. There in lies the real magic of the steam room (as well as the sauna).
All I know is there both very hot....
LOL you have to try it)
AnonThis is true. It took two weeks and the steam room is down already. Damn naked elders pouring water on the gauge.
Holy shit....I know the feeling bro they come in our room but ass naked sit there bare ass on the wood seats.....nasty, I raise hell, bitch then walk out.....
Steam rooms are what the long deceased warriors in Val Halla rest in after long days of battle.
Sauna's are what people in Arizona call "Tuesday" from April to October.
But the ultimate reason why steam rooms are superior? If you have a night full of good sex, no sane minded person says "it was hot and dry!" It's always, "it was hot and steamy!" Superior in all ways, brothers.
AnonJesus christ, best response ever
Thanks for the laugh. Cheers!
Steam rooms are fantastic. I don't think there's a comparison with a dry sauna. Better, best kind of thing.
totally agree with you !
AnonYessir!
I'll take the wet heat over the dry heat any day.
I agree, the dry heat dries the inside my nose out real bad.
AnonBought some eculyptus spray, breathing it in this morning with a good sweat brings the endorphins pit nicely
RustyhookerEucalyptus! Love that in the sauna. Long ago the gym owner mixed eucalyptus with mint. I always have plugged nasal from allergies. Went into the sauna and nose cleared so fast that my body freaked out by not having to work so hard. Felt like drowning I guess explains it. But after I got used to it, I loved the free breathing.
RustyhookerI prefer steam room. Hot and sweaty quickly.
AnonLiterally sweating as I walk to sit down. It's actually more hot as you move around through the steam. Walking in circles like a zombie lol
RustyhookerI had to just sit. They upped the temp and moving around was too hardcore for me. Lol!
GnarkillYou should of thrown your towel off and challenged him to a naked sit off
AnonHahaha
GnarkillMaybe a cock pushup
