Does anyone else sweat A LOT at the gym

Well title says it all doesn't it? I'm normally not a big sweater when I'm not exercising, but after I come back from the gym my Dad says I look like I ran through a sprinkler :laugh: . I know it sounds gross but my clothes are heavy with sweat afterwards and I always have to have a towel with me on the cardio machines. But when I'm looking around I see that other people don't seem to sweat as much as me. Is it normal? A result of my exercises (30 min stationary bike on fat loss, then 20 on treadmill fat loss, then weights)? Or a result of hydration (I drink a lot of water)?

I look like I've taken a shower! Doesn't bother me so much. Just remember to wipe down the machines with a towel for the sake of everyone else!

Everyone sweats different. I sweat less when I'm out of shape for some reason. maybe it's a hydration thing? Now I'm sweating buckets when I do higher intensity exercise. Every inch of me is soaked and there's sweat droplets on the floor, even though I towel off every so often. That's why I exercise at home. :laugh:

I start sweating nearly immediately. If I'm working hard, I make it rain.

Some people don't sweat, some people don't work. But either way, it's pointless to try to evaluate what other people are doing.

Clean up after yourself and carry on.
