Should You Sweat Doing Yoga?

Описание: If you’ve ever been to a boot camp workout or tried a challenging HIIT circuit on your own, you know just how sweaty you can get when you challenge your body with these fast-paced exercises.

But many people forget that a simple, and even slow yoga flow can make you perspire like nobody’s damn business. As a yoga instructor, I love seeing the shocked look on people’s faces when I tell them there are so many yoga poses that make you sweat way more than a lengthy treadmill sesh ever will.

Personally, I love breaking a nice sweat before chilling out in savasana. But if you’re low-key pissed about purposefully drenching yourself in your own bodily fluids, perhaps you should remember that sweating during a workout is actually a good thing.

When you’re working hard and pushing your body, it can get overheated from the challenge. Sweat is just your body’s way of responding to that challenge by keeping your core temperature at a safe and steady level.

So, while you may be grossed out to see visible sweat stains left behind on your yoga mat after you finish your flow, just remember that that is physical proof of how hard you’re working to strengthen and better your body.
