Saunas and Sauna Suits

Who doesn’t love spending a few minutes in a sauna or steam room after a challenging workout?  Your body and your mind relax, the tension in your muscles goes away, your sinuses clear up, and you feel refreshed for the remainder of the day.  With how energizing these effects feel, it should come as no surprise that exciting new research from the esteemed Rhonda Perciavalle Patrick, Ph.D. would reveal that increasing one’s core temperature for short sessions has far reaching benefits for the entirety of one’s being.  Check out what other physiological adaptations ‘hypothermic conditioning’ can bring about for you:

• Greater endurance as the body is forced to adapt to higher levels of activity
• Significant muscle gains as blood and nutrient flow is increased to skeletal muscle and key tissues
• Glycogen depletion is reduced as oxygen is more efficiently transported to the muscles
• Improved cardiovascular health and a lower heart rate as plasma volume and blood flow to the heart is increased
• A decrease in insulin and blood glucose levels
• Quicker recovery from injuries
• Growth of new brain cells that lead to improvement in focus, learning, and memory
• Reduction in depression and anxiety symptoms

 With all of these wonderful benefits, you may notice that a key aspect of fitness is missing: weight loss.  Sure, sweating in a sauna will make you lose water weight, but that will come back as soon as you rehydrate.  What we really want is fat loss.  That’s where the Kutting Weight comes in.

 Our neoprene ‘SweatTech’ Sauna Suit traps in your body heat to mimic the sauna experience, and can be worn anywhere you wish to exercise.  The American Council of Exercise – ACE Certified – has determined that using Kutting Weight gear in your workouts not only achieves all of the above adaptations and benefits, but adds even more:

 Skyrocketing EPOC levels that destroy your body’s homeostasis

• Significant rises in resting metabolic rate, ensuring more calories are burned even after the workout has concluded
• Improved fat and carb oxidation, allowing the body to burn fat as fuel more efficiently
• Higher VO2 max levels for cardiovascular endurance

 While sitting there in a sauna is nice, exercising while heat training in our gear gives you the edge to maximize your gains, lose weight, and reach the next level in your fitness goals.  Try Kutting Weight – you will!
