question about steam rooms, electrolytes and stuff...

[juiceddreadlocks]

I just joined a gym that has a steam room. I had not ever been in one before, and was wondering how long it's okay to sit in one. Should I be drinking water and taking some electrolyte solution while I'm in it?

Depends.....if you want to work up a good sweat...then something like gatorade is a good choice.

If you ar eusing to lost weight for a contest prep, etc..then leave the water

so drinking a ton of water and taking a potassium pill isnt going to cut it if I want to stay in there for 30 minutes?

It could.....



Too many variables:

1 - current state of hydration
2 - temp in the room
3 - how humid

etc...you would probably be ok for just 30

Last time I went into a steam room, there was an old, hairy, fat naked dude in there.
