Megan said: "Oh! I saw a tv show about that once! I cant remember what its called but its a medical condition. Just like someone that sweats all the time. Just the opposite. sorry I guess thats not very helpful. :o"

Megan said: "Anhidrosis From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Anhidrosis means lack of sweating. Causes It may be caused by underactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. Eccrine sweat glands are innervated via muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. Hence antimuscarinic drugs cause anhidrosis. Thats all I could find on it."

Leah20 said: "I never sweat, no matter how hard I am working. I have never had sweat drip from my face in my life - even after doing like 1.5 hrs on the treadmill. Everyone thinks its really strange. My fiance thinks i'm not working hard enough, because he drips sweat after like 5 mins. I get a little damp on my back and neck and thats about it. My face usually just gets red. Anyone know what's up with that?"

Higher intensity exercise (where your heart is pounding and you sweat a lot) will burn more calories, but you can only sustain that kind of workout for a short time. Longer sessions of less intense exercise will burn the same amount of calories, but you should be sure that your workouts are intense enough to elevate your heart rate. Strolling down the street at a leisurely pace is not going to burn as many calories as power walking."

Fatexterminator said: "[SIZE="3"]Okaye, so i was curious, which burns more calories, vigorous exercise where you sweat like the ocean, or just " plain " (lol?) exerise, where you styill sweat, but not as much? I mean, maybe when i go off my diet, i should do vigourous exercise to burn it off, right? Or should i balance the two throughout the weeek? Thanks[/SIZE]"
