Girls who don't sweat? How?

If you sweat as much as I do lets be friends....

I wear an 80s sweat band if I'm doing any form of cardio... best invention ever...

I feel bad for my drivers seat of my car and feel like I need to steam clean it...

BACNE - Back-Acne - ... effing sucks...

I weigh 2-3 lbs less when I'm done with my long runs ... holla!!

Ha ha my bf was just asked what I was doing and I said I'm writing a post about much I sweat and he said yeah you sweat a lot

It seems like I only sweat from a few places, like my lower back. I get really self concious about it because hey...butt sweat. My boyfriend says it's because I'm not working hard enough! I just don't sweat from every pore like other people do.

I don't understand it when I look around at the gym or at yoga and see girls who are working hard and NOT sweating. It's just not fair! I start sweating buckets like, within the first five minutes of working out. I feel like people must look at me and think it's gross! Girls who don't sweat, how is this possible? Is it relative to fitness?

It's certain dry. Get a bottle and rub it on. Make sure you get your forehead and around your neck.....


No seriously, I sweat a lot! I like it. It makes me feel like I am getting in a good workout and when it starts pouring down my face I just push myself harder. It's my motivator. To go with the above, my armpits are the only place I don't sweat, love that certain dry, no gym stink after a workout and no white residue on my black shirts and bras.

I get a filmy sweat mostly. The only places I really get sweaty are places I'd really prefer not to (ex: underarms).

I'm afraid it'll look like I'm a wimp because I AM working, but I'm sooo out of shape, and without buckets of sweat, getting off the treadmill before everyone else just looks like I'm pathetic and not even working.

Don't get me wrong though, I like that I don't do the rolling drenched with sweat thing. I've never lived in a place that wasn't incredibly humid. And I grew up in (and am about to move back to) Texas. Not west Texas (dry desert). Hot, humid, I-can't-even-breathe Texas. So yeah, I'm happy about that. It's possible that beyond the genetics factor, if you live in a humid area, it can be your body realizing that releasing more sweat actually makes things worse, so it eases off (the same way that washing your hair too often makes your scalp produce more oil.. but in reverse? heh). Of course, that's just an idea, I don't even know.

Depends on the individual, I personally sweat more when I'm fitter, remember, the more you sweat the more heat your body can dissipate!

High five to anyone else who turns embarrassingly red like me!

chicks don't sweat, they perspire....

Tell me something... When you see the classic sexy workout woman shot.. Is she dry or do they have her all glistening and covered with what looks like sweat?

Yeah typically they oil her up or spray water on her so that it beads..

Why?

Cuz sweat is sexy.


Own it. I do. :-D

This completely reminds me of those terrible shows, Hercules, Xena and the Beastmaster and others like them. For the most part they had very attractive casts with terrible acting skills. But I always used to say that you could tell if you were supposed to find the character attractive by how moist they were.

Moist = sweaty = sexy

sweating is necessary for your health! It's your body's way of cooling off and avoiding overheating. If you didn't sweat you wouldn't be able to workout as hard, and long runs would cause nerve/muscle damage and possible kill you. As someone who is drenched after 5 minutes of running, I try to embrace it. Even though it is kind of disgusting.

I'm one of those girls who doesn't sweat that much, unless it's really hot or humid outside. I worry the opposite though, that people will think I'm not trying hard because I'm not sweating that much. I swear I'm pouring my heart out, it's just air conditioned in the gym!!

It takes a lot for me to sweat! I exercise three times a week and there really isn't much sweat off of me. I am tired and I drink loads of water whilst exercising. I find though I pass urine a great deal right after.

This is interesting. I will get sweaty but not to the point where my shirt gets wet. My face gets super red, I overheat very easily, and I will start to smell sweaty.

People use to observe that about me in the gym. They'd say why don't you sweat. I can tell you workout hard. A trainer asked me if I drank water. Well, I didn't drink water. As soon as I started drinking water, I started sweating. But I also have noticed, the more in shape I become, the less I sweat. But sweating is the body's way of cooling off. That is why they tell pregnant women not to train too hard cardio wise because the baby can't cool off. So it's natural and it's a good thing.

I sweat so much at the gym that I look like a drowning elephant. Seriously, it's disgusting. My face, hair and clothes are soaking wet, and I'm sure it doesn't help that I go to a crossfit gym with no AC in South Florida. The people at Costco love me when I decide to drop by after working out....haha

I always sweat and always have. Even when I was young and a size 3. It sucks because I feel dirty constantly...if I get dressed nice to go somewhere, I'm sweaty and gross by the time I get there. It doesn't matter if I'm in air conditioning or not. Most of the time I change shirts at least twice a day. And I'm constantly carrying a towel in my car because as soon as I get in my face, neck, back, and chest just start pouring sweat. I used to play tennis with a friend of mine...in the 90 degree weather with super high Southern Illinois humidity and she would not have one ounce of sweat on her. I would have to peel the clothes off of me.

I'm one of those unlucky people who sweat buckets. By the time I'm done with my workout, it looks like I just hopped out of the shower.

What's worse is how awful I smell. I decided to nix the shower one night and just head home, and my husband had to put the windows down the smell was so bad.
