I've heard mixed opinions on these things... Anyone know the real deal???

Occasionaly I'll sit in the steam room for 10min after a heavy lifting session to losten up. Am I wasting my time? It sure relaxes the hell outta me, but if it's at the cost of muscle loss, I'd prefer to leave it out. I make sure to get plenty of water, and don't do it on cardio days....

so what's the skinny???! http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

i dont use the one at my gym. apparently someone has pissed on the rocks a few times. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

too many old fat naked guys around in there for me at my gym. I usually go home right after lifting to do my post work out routing....whey, shower, cook, and then eat.

Here in San Francisco. . . No way

Nothing wrong with the steam room/sauna. Especially when ya wanna tighten up the skin just a tad more to give you that extra ripped look...my trainer forced me to hit the sauna during one of my comps between the prejudge and night show...it actually worked to change the judges mind and bumped me up to third instead of fifth.
