What the fuck are these even for?

Is there any benefit/drawback of using a sauna/hot tub right after lifting?

I like to jump in the tub for 10-15 mins then take a cold shower after lifting.

getting drunk and bantering with the lads by pissing on the rocks

Finns.

Trainer at my gym who I talked to during my post workout sauna session told me that taking a cold shower after sauna sends blood flowing through the muscles which flushes acid and helps recovery

I dont know how much of that is broscience, but it sure as hell feels good

Yeah that's what I've read elsewhere too, just wanted a second opinion. I think it helps with DOMS for me personally

He was the hero Veeky Forums deserved, not the hero we wanted.

Lmao nice

I'm retard. plx explain

They are for dumb women who think they are 'releasing all the bad toxins from the body'.

These are also the same women who want to 'tone up for summer'

These are also the same women who now blend their food because 'Juicing is a great way to detox'

These are also the same women who try to sell you herbalife or juice +

These are also the same women who share dog recuse videos on facebook all day long

HOW TO "TAKE A STEAM"

1. Wear a towel and flip flops
2. Sit in sauna for 15-20 minutes
3. Do Not leave the sauna every 5 minutes to cool off and then go back in. You sit in there until you can't take it anymore.
4. Finally, leave the sauna and immediately go to the shower
5. Rinse the sweat off your body with cold water for 10 seconds or so and then you can switch to a normal warm temperature shower
6. Do this a couple times per week.

I work in a gym and I am so fucking tired of watching retards that don't know what saunas are for. Your skin is like a sponge and it is soaking up all the pollution and shit inthe air and on your clothes 24 hours a day. So you go into a sauna, sweat that shit out, then wash it off with cold water so your pores close up and don't reabsorb it, and then you go about your day. If you do it right you will notice a difference and feel great. This is oldschool knowledge and I'm frustrated by watching goofy faggots running in and out of the sauna without knowing what they're doing.
There, done venting and ranting.

My skin just looks better after sauna, especially if you have chest acne or something like that I found it to be helpful.

>I work in a gym
>Let me spout a bunch of broscience about how the body works
Never take advice on anything from these people. Why don't you tell me the toxins in my body next caused by heavy metals.

for closet homos

>how to use sauna
>1. Wear a towel and flip flops
Literally went wrong on the first fucking step. You're supposed to be naked in sauna.

It is oldschool broscience but there are some benefits to it. My argument is that dipshits don't even do it right. Most anything related to fitness is till broscience you fucking faggot.

Steamy gay sex

It makes sense if it's not your personal sauna.
Disgusting and ugly people sat, sweat on the bench and certainly didn't clean before leaving.

That's why you either use a small towel or a disposable one, if the sauna provides them, to sit on.

Ever heard of disposable pefletti?

Finns, Scandinavians, Russians.

It prepares you for the cold and helps when fighting bears in the snow.

Listen to this man, nobody knows sauna like the Finns, they're born in there, they cook in there, they die in there.

Zyzz didn't roid, thank you.

Any finn care to enlighten why you lash yourselves with fig branches while steaming? Is it really a crucial part of the sauna experience?

WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN DELETED YET

Feels good man.
Birching exfoliates and scrubs the skin and the scent is pretty good senpai.

this is ban worthy

>tfw like it but too autistic to go with others these days

niggers tongue my anus

In Finland they were used as places to give birth in not too many generations ago. It was very clean. Otherwise it's relaxing but br careful if you have heart problems.

Also going back and forth from cold water and back to the sauna makes your body better at regulating heat

Don't go into a public pool covered in your own sweat. Rinse off first

I like steam rooms better

>I feel almost separated from the rest of the world.
You really should since you are. Mentally. No, it was not a compliment.

Reminds me of this one thing that happened to me years ago in sauna, I'll greentext it to you guys

>take a proper sauna, go drink naked and back to sauna
>exchange suggestive looks and smiles with cousins but nobody's saying anything yet
>my and my cousin's parents have had enough of the heat and they go get some wine and light the barbecue
>me and my two astounding cousins are naked side by side
