No sweat

[silverstreak]

I have a problem here. When ever i'm at the gym, and working at a high intensity, i never sweat even though i'm working as hard as i can and teh under tension is the same. My muscles go to complete failure. My face is screwing up just to get the last couple of reps but yet i don't sweat? I don't know wat the problem is!! Plz help!!

do heavy squats, you will sweat.

Sweat comes if you're body feels like it needs to cool off, so do you get hot? Also, you might not have as many sweat glands as other people. My sister doesn't hardly ever sweat, but it's because she has less glands.

Sweat means nothing. The only time I sweat is in the sauna when I am flat on my ass not moving a muscle

Some people just don't sweat that much... don't worry about it!

It all depends whether your heart rate is elevated or not.
The only time to worry would be if you train intensely and your heart rate is still too low for the exercise you are performing, I am talking cardio now.
I have a heart condition and I am not allowed to train above 150. Since my body is kind of used to strenuous exercise, I never sweat anymore.

Having said all that I strongly advise anyone to get a medical check up before starting any heavy lifting or strenuous cardio programme.
