Thoughts on sauna

[MelindaJones11]

[FONT=&quot]The gym I attend has a sauna that is never in use. It's a smaller gym. I've read a bit online of the benefits of using the sauna, but was wondering if anyone here uses it themselves, and for what reason? I'm not looking to lose weight, just more for relaxation and detox.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I typically go to the gym to do light weight training and heavy cardio (bike 10 miles, run 5)... When would be the best time to use the sauna?[/FONT]

infrared sauna's are far superior because you get all the benefits and a boost in sunshine without the UV exposure

regular sauna's at a gym i avoid due to the unsanitary conditions of touching old man ball sweat. no thanks on that

I don't use saunas, but if you feel like using it to relax than by all means go for it
