Are Sauna's/Steam Rooms beneficial?

[cjWaid]

It depends on whether it is a co-ed room or not.

They have limited benefits for heterosexuals.

Unless you're in a co-ed gym.

Hi, I also love going to sauna and steams and according to my readings that they are beneficial to one's health but there's a time duration for it. For sauna, I think its between 15 minutes to 30 minutes. For steam, its 5 minutes upto 10minutes. Also, people who have heart ailment or pregnant are advised not to use it. But I'm not sure why.

didn't realise this was a comedy show.

I was concerned because I never see many big guys go in either the steam room or the sauna.

Maybe the guys in your gym have small meats?

Facts and fables about sauna

In summary, sauna baths are well tolerated and pose no risk to healthy people from infancy to old age, including healthy women in their uncomplicated pregnancy. The normal sauna bath, with moderate cool-off phases, increases the cardiac work load about as much as a brisk walk. It has been well established that the sauna bath, no matter what the cool-off type, does not pose any circulatory risk to healthy people. Cardiovascular patients with essential hypertension, coronary heart disease or past myocardial infarction, who are stable and relatively asymptomatic in their everyday life may also take sauna baths without undue risk. As a rule of thumb, if a person can walk into a sauna, he or she can walk out of it. Misuse and abuse of the sauna are another matter.

So if you dont have any heart/cardio problems, you should be ok, I wouldn't overdo it though.

there are a ton of benefits to Sauna's alot like what everyone has listed.

Detox

Relaxation (Stress is a killer, probably even more then smoking )

one other one is that it wouldn't be a bad idea to lightly stretch in a sauna, since it's so hot you'd have a much easier time stretching, I'd take advantage of that if I had a Sauna at my tiny gym.
