Subject: RE: I'm a sweaty mess. Is this a problem?Afletcher - 2009-07-07 10:45 AM Yes Huh. Could you be any more obtuse with your response? Let me guess.. "Yes".  To the OP: I wouldn't worry about it too much unless you start having other symptoms. I'm a fairly heavy sweater as well, I had a 3 hour ride a few weeks ago in the early AM (In Phoenix ), and despite taking in close to 96 oz of fluid, I still lost 4 lbs. I can lose 5 lbs in an hour long martial arts class (Wearing 5 lbs of canvas will do that to you ), and I weigh 170ish at 5'11". Just monitor the loss and replace it (I weigh myself before and after every workout ), and be aware of other symptoms if they crop up. John |
