So I saw a guy at the gym working out with literally, about 10 + shirts on, and a parka over top. Now I'm not sure what the general consensus is on this, but does it actually do anything? Perhaps sweating a little more to burn more fat? Can't see it being very effective, lol...

I don't know, I just thought it looked very awkward and uncomfortable and was wondering if people actually do this? .....

I used to see a guy in the gym wear a sweatshirt all the time. I thought that was extreme. I wear as little as possible in the gym. By the 3rd set I'm sweating and looking for a fan. I couldn't imagine wearing a sweatshirts and coats to the gym.

ACTUALLY ITS NOT THAT IT CAUSES ANY BODYFAT LOSS, AS THATS IMPOSSIBLE.

ITS SIMPLY CAUSES MORE BODYWATER LOSS.

THAT SAID, I AM GUILTY OF IT MYSELF, ITS MENTAL CARRY OVER FROM WHEN I USED TO WRESTLE I GUESS, AND IT WAS A WAY OF KEEPING EXCESS WATER LOW IN HIGH SCHOOL.

I LIKE TO DO IT NOW ESPECIALLY ON CHEST DAY OR CARDIO ANYTIME, I'LL OFTEN WEAR SEVERAL SHIRTS AND HELL EVEN 2PAIR OF PANTS SOMETIMES.

I LIKE TO SWEAT WHEN I DO MY CARDIO, THE CHEST THING IS MENTAL, I LIKE TO FEEL STUFFED INTO MY SHIRT, KEEPS ME TIGHT ON MY LIFTS.

i always wear a thermal type long sleeve shirt, with a tshirt over it, and a beanie on my head. every day. i just like to be covered up. a coat, though, would be a bit much.
