Master  2033  |  Subject: Steam roomWhat are the benifits of using a steam room post workout? I use it for 10 minutes or so after every workout, and I know it feels good. What I really want to know is is there any real benifit? If so what? Is it dangerous? Is it ok to streach in the steam room? (assuming its not full of naked people!)  Thanks! |

Elite 3498 Chicago | Subject: RE: Steam room what's even more disturbing is that they personal trainers are the guys who go in and "break it up." you couldn't pay me enough to do that! |

Master 2033 | Subject: RE: Steam room LOL... I have never witnessed what steve is talking about... And hope I never do. But I have to say I think it is the most relaxing part of my day too. I really enjoy it. Does it have any real benifit? or is it purly psycological? |

Elite 2915 New City, New York | Subject: RE: Steam room I enjoy a post workout steam myself even if the benefit is only psychological. btw I've never seen or heard of any of "that" in the steamroom at Bally's in NYC. Now the jacuzzi, that's a different story! |
