The No Sweat Workout: Exercise Without Getting Sweaty!

We have all had those days where we wanted to workout, but had to immediately go back to work, and didn’t want to be sweaty. As much as I love to sweat, I hate being smelly when going back into a setting where I need to be close to other people. I have also heard that sweaty hair that was just “done” is not a good thing….

So, out of love for nice hair and the convenience of going back to class or work fresh… I bring you the No Sweat Workout!

In addition to following certain workout techniques to prevent sweating during your workout, perform specific exercises to avoid sweating while you workout. Mainly, focus on performing single joint exercises, at a slow pace, with two to three minutes of rest between sets.

For the No Sweat Workout, perform 3 sets of 10 for each exercise. Take four seconds to move the weight up, and four seconds to return the weight to your starting position. Knock out these handful of exercises and stay fresh!
