So after i work out i like to sit in the sauna and relax for about 20 minutes. I know that your heart rate raises a bit and i break a good sweat. Does anyone know what this translates to in burned calories approximately?

If anyone has any info on saunas and health related info please share!

Thank you MFP!

    The sauna will not help you burn calories - or all southerners without AC would be thin.

    It will make you sweat and you will lose hydration.

    Sorry.
