louloupole Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Hey there, I am now on day 14 of my first ever Whole30 and am loving it! I just wanted to ask a question... I go to the gym maybe 4-5 times a week, and also do about 3-4 hours of pole-dancing at my local dance studio, so I'm used to working up a sweat, but ever since i have started this program, it seems like any exertion now leaves my absolutely dripping wet in a way only Bikram yoga ever has before: not so much my face, but especially on my back! Even a gentle 2 mile walk to work this morning and I was mopping up the water for a good 15 minutes after I got in. I drink absolutely loads of water, and - not to be an oversharer - it isn't smelly sweat...but there just seems to be a heap more of it! Has anyone else noticed this? Thanks in advance!

Megan Claydon Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I notice an increase in sweat depending on several circumstances. Living in Houston, sometimes the humidity you can just walk outside and start sweating. Also, when I stay on top of my hydration I tend to sweat more. I would consider it a good thing that it doesn't smell Also, consider adding a pinch of salt to your water (you shouldn't be able to taste it though) and this can help restore some electrolytes. Mineral water is also great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louloupole Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Thanks, Megan Yes, I do sometimes cramp up, so I'll try the salt thang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
