Anyone have some do's and don'ts on sauna suits? I picked one up but the thought always lingers in the back of my head that during a local teams summer football training camp a kid dropped dead wearing one. I have always been spooked about them since then. So someone please come drop some knowledge about these things before I decide to go sit in a sauna doing a spin class regiment on a bike with a sauna suit on to drop weight.

To the thread starter, if a sauna suit really only helps you to drop water weight, and not fat, I would only use it before a fight, if you're looking to drop a pound or two right before your fight. Otherwise, you're putting a lot of stress on your heart with the extra heat.
Just go into a sauna and drop water weight by sitting there and relaxing. After you leave the sauna, jump into an ice cold pool or take a very cold shower. I heard it's good for your body to do so.

sauna suits are good for cutting a few extra pounds of water weight if you find yourself above your limit. other than that i stay away from them.

Sweating is one of the mechanisms that facilitates this. Sweating is too cool our core temp to not overheat and exhaust. You can actually train your body to sweat better. So the sauna suit expedites this process. Also its great for your body to sweat out toxins. I always love gulping down **** loads of water than getting a great sweat going, its invigorating and good for the body. Do you not think that the better your exocrine system works the better your stamina in the ring?
