After looking on the internet i found a few site that say a 160# person burned about 300 calories in 30 mins . But i also found a few sites that say it does nothing as far as calories burning . Anyone out there ever try the sauna as a workout ( not that i would call it a workout ) and lost weight

It costs you little to no extra energy to sit on your *kitten* and sweat out extra water to keep your body temperature regulated cool.0

Zero.
Edited to add: You lose water weight, not body fat.0 -
um. none. you sit on ur *kitten*. you lose water weight, not fat.0

Living here in Texas I can tell you that if a sauna burned calories I'd be an underwear model. :laugh:0

you burn as many calories sitting at your computer desk as you would in the sauna. the sauna just causes you to lose water weight.0

I do my ab workout in the sauna after my regular workout. I burn about 100-200 in 15-20 minutes. Pretty much the exact same as when I do it not in the sauna. But I get so much sweatier makes me feel like I'm working harder lol0

I do get out and move..lol..i was thinking about getting a sauna for the times after my workout and i still want more of a calorie burn. ( I have medical limitation ) My friend told me about it helping with burning calories. After looking on the internet i found many site that say it does . Has anyone tried it , if so did it work for you0

If you buy a sauna, do it for the relaxation and opening up the pores on your skin. If you buy for weight loss and a work out, you will be disappointed0

It burns about as much as those absurd shake belts.....

oh if only it were that easy to sit on your butt and lose weight :laugh:
if the sauna worked then why not the hot tub or a hot bath?0 -
It increases your heart rate too so I do think it's more beneficial than just clearing pores and losing water weight. However, I agree with those who say don't count on it to burn calories.0

If that burned calories, well....areas of the deep south wouldn't consistently have the heaviest people per capita (not knocking the south...I'm from there)0

Lol. This thread.
If you were hoping for a bunch of enablers to tell you the sauna is a magic bullet and to go for it, I think you might've come to the wrong place...0 -
it only works if you drink raspberry ketones while in sauna...0

None. You are only dehydrating, not sweating because you are burning calories.0

the answer is...
ZERO.ZERO0
