I'm 67 years old and I've been a huge fan of saunas for longer than I can remember. I've been lifting, on and off, since I was 14. My son, who is 31, and I have been weightlifting together for 8-10 years. The sauna is part of our regime and we sit in the sauna before and after our workout.

@@FartCakes def! I highly recommend listening to some good podcasts with good guests. Something to keep that adrenaline going and keep you interested. Iv listen to a lot of jujitsu podcasts in the sauna. All the best 🤜🤛
Great discussion guys !! This sort of specific information can be challenging to find for those looking at incorporating sauna use in their fitness routine. Great to have this info available from those who are actually practicing what they preach.
Saunas are underated. Let’s just say sweating in general. I didn’t get sick last year until I stopped religiously using the sauna/getting sweaty in Texas heat.
i am pretty sure you don't get the "heat shock" benefit from infrared because they are low temp. it's more of a pre-workout sauna. the traditional sauna is the one shown to help strength and hypertrophy after the workout even
Just wanted to say I felt a cold coming Saturday gym was closed till Monday and I was off Monday and want to the sauna for 5-10min and it has help me not to cough as much
I noticed I feel no soreness after using the sauna post workout... Last week, I had a monster workout and my gym's sauna was out of order and I felt sore for 2 days, couldn't even sleep right the first night. Today, just post workout I felt sore on my shoulders and after the sauna, the pain and soreness went away. Seems to loosen the muscles and I feel so relaxed after.
@@sports872 no i also do it before every workout for 10 min at around 90 degrees celcius and it helps you relax before your workout and it also helps you focus
I really liked the last sentence of this. "if you're doing it, you're doing it and that's all that matters." I think it's optimal to not get comfortable, always keep learning, do the right things as best you can and debunk misinformation but past that- doing things perfectly is splitting hairs and not really sustainable. Its much better to do mostly everything right than to super focus on only one aspect of fitness and think if you only do this one thing perfectly you won't have to do anything else to achieve broader goals. I know It's hard to do all the things, but it's even harder to do them all perfect. It's less about "exactly when" and "how much" to get that extra 5% than it is to just do it in general and get the larger baseline additional 30%.
I like to do the sauna before because I feel a little stronger. I feel like it's a good way to feel warmed up for your lifting without burning energy. I like the steam after.
Regarding the Finnish study about regular sauna use reducing all-cause mortality: cardiovascular events are strongly represented among the causes of death in Finland, so I wonder if the study managed to rule out the possibility that the individuals susceptible to heart disease or stroke etc. might avoid regular sauna use because they are more likely to experience bothersome symptoms whenever they use sauna?
Your early point about performance vs. Building muscle is off. Sauna use can be used pre or post workout for recovery. Studies show Passive heating in a sauna helps MAINTAIN MUSCLE MASS WITHOUT EXERCISE & BOOSTS MUSCLE STRENGTH UP TO 17%, Enhances MUSCLE Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Function by 28% and reduces Skeletal Muscle Atrophy BY 37%. Thanks for speaking about heat therapy!🔥
I've been doing mine pre- workout for roughly 4-5 years. I also do my stretching in the sauna. When I leave the sauna, I feel loose and ready to go (especially because the air is much cooler in the gym) I haven't tried post- workout but will be after watching this. The cold plunges I do as often as I can, meaning a couple times a week before or after a shower. I only get sore if I don't use the sauna pre- workout.
I have a dumb question: why would pre or post workout sauna be any more beneficial than say, a low intensity steady-state treadmill for 20min? Both forms warm up the body, the joints, increase blood flow, etc. There are many "studies" out there claiming low intensity cardio is very beneficial for recovery too. Do they have similar benefits or no?
I always choose traditional sauna. Infrared has benefits, but you need higher temps (+175°F) for increases in autophagy, heat shock proteins, mTor, & HGH release during deep sleep the next night (need low blood sugar before bed). For real sauna benefots your session needs to be at least 15 minutes (should try for at least 20 minutes) It will be uncomfortable, but that's what is needed for longevity benefits. Consider sauna a type of workout. Similar to resistance training or a cardio session. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger! Good Luck, stay hydrated, & stay up on them electrolytes!!!
@@Vishal-l9q6n don't hate the clown, hate the circus. Just trying to help you get the most benefits out of your sauna session. Versus spending 10-15 minutes in a moderately hot sauna sweating & getting the placebo affect because you sweated a little. Maybe just investigate sauna (Dr. Rhonda Patrick) versus hating what you don't understand...or don't & die prematurely. Your call, I'll never see you or talk to you again so I don't give a ****
I do Monday-Friday 20-24 minutes & Saturday-Sunday 15-18 minutes. Is it too extreme? I don't force it though, if I sense it's getting way too hot for me I exit.
@@GMPro24 Why’s that? Do you feel as if your body requires it or what are you thinking? I genuinely feel like I’m overdoing it at times to be frank. Do you do before or after your workout?
@@allygarska I always go after a workout and I take 2 days off a week to just relax and recover with minimal stress on the body..just works for me personally. Just make sure you are hydrating well and you won’t really over do it
@@GMPro24 Yes, absolutely. Always. A nonnegotiable! To me, 30 minute sessions or more would be “overdoing” it. At least for me, personally. I heard folks that live in countries with colder climates go for longer period than 30-minute sessions. Hitting close to the hour. Insane, right! The human body’s capable of amazing things. You can certainly adapt & train it, no doubt. But I could never 😄 At least not now 😅
Sauna before bed is not bed I guess it’s the same like warm tubs the rapid reduction of heat in your body after getting out makes you tired maybe just not immediately before going right to sleep (I listend to JRE with this sleep Professor before that’s why I guess so)
Finnish / traditional saunas are linked to the all cause mortality study noted. I do not believe infrared can be directly correlated. They are two different animals. Dr Rhonda Fitzpatrick sets this straight. They are not the same.
Hello! We have a conondrum that we are wondering about. If cold hinders hypertrophy and sauna / heat helps hypertrophy. What about doing both? We have a sauna 85 degrees a 4 degrees icebath and after training we do both. What are the effects? Do they help eachother, promote hypertrophy or does it nothing? Or do Ice win over Heat? Hope you understand my question, love your content. Best regards from Sweden.
Just to be clear: Everyone is advising now not to take a cold shower after weight resistance training. The majority of people do sauna right after work out and then they take a cold shower. I cannot find anywhere a clear answer if taking a cold shower after the sauna should be the skipped! So work out, sauna, and warm/normal temperature shower.
Andrew Huberman did a video on Weight loss and he covered the Hot and Cold method to lose weight. He is really a proponent Cold shock to get the body shiver to help increase metabolism.
I don't think it's that deep though. People over analyse this stuff way too much. I take Sauna post-workout and then have a cold shower to help me cool down, before going into the swimming pool or spa. I only really "rinse off" in the cold shower though (so less than 20 seconds). It's really not that deep. Let's say you lose 1% of muscle by having a cold shower post workout, is it really that much of a loss in comparison to the enormous other benefits that cold showers bring?
@Jorge Luis Fernandez yes, they lowered it to 80 celcius. I drink a total of 1.1L in that time, also it's easy to do when talking to people there. One of the few environments left where you can talk to people you don't know , because they can't use their phone in there :)
@@xzyjli2160 I heard the opposite. You shouldn't take a cold shower after the sauna to build muscle. It is good to do so, but do it separately from the gym. Because you want the body to be warm as long as possible. Maybe take the sauna and cold plunge on a off day?
I wouldn’t even know why someone would want to workout after a good sauna session. I would feel like after the sauna you wouldn’t be as energized and workout would suffer.
Studies vs experience... studies on a fraction of the population meaning by popular vote is correct hard for me to reason with.... By my personal experience it benefits me from experience. Experience meaning you took the time to see if it works for yourself. 500k out of 1 billion is like winning the lotto so go ahead and listen to studies without trying it see how far you get.
I can tolerate 30-45 minutes in a Finnish Sauna without problem but when I do 20 minutes or more of infrared sauna I get a brain splitting headache about half an hour after I finish. When I did a two hour infrared session (at 120 degrees) my head hurt for two days. Has anyone ever heard of anything like this and what it could possibly be from?
Sounds like dehydration. Make sure you're drinking a lot but with enough electrolytes too. Otherwise too much water will flush out electrolytes and dehydrate you as well.
Infrared saunas have many more benefits than regular steam sauna, this guy needs to do better research before coming on a show and making claims that have been shown to be false according to clinical trials. Steam saunas simply do not heat the body enough internally and most people cannot sit in a regular sauna long enough to reap the benefits.
