OK I get that when a fighter is trying to cut weight he will put on layers and work out with warm clothes on to sweat out water weight. What I don't get is why I see guys who I know aren't fighters come onto the gym where its already almost 75 degrees and work out in hoodies with the hoods up? Can someone explain this to me please?

    Probably because they think they'll lose weight n sweat more... I think it's self explanatory?

    Right....I know they think that....its just I don't get why a couple lbs of water weight is important for the average Joe. Who knows.:) they probably think I'm weird for wearing a tank top.

    Okay, but, unless you're a model, why does that matter?

    some guys can be self conscious too...it's probably more the reasons already mentioned, but just throwing that out there. i feel "safer" in baggy clothes when i work out :ohwell: :blushing:

    Part of his M.O.?
  • I actually was this guy a few weeks back. It was cold out and it was the week after I had a sinus infection and I decided that I was too cold to get out of my hoodie when I got on the treadmill. So I kept it on for the entire 45 minute jog. It felt great. It was no different then joggin outside.
