Here are some things I noticed before and after hitting the sauna hard: • HRV ⬆️ ~15% • Resting heart rate ⬇️ 3-6 bpm by week 3 • Deep sleep ⬆️ 20 minutes/night • Soreness + inflammation noticeably decreased • Recovery between workouts felt faster - less tightness the next morning • Skin quality improved from increased circulation + sweating out debris • Stress levels ⬇️ a ton - felt calmer and less reactive during the day • Mental clarity ⬆️ (sauna → dopamine/ endorphin spike + post-session calm) Bottom line, hit the sauna and hit it frequently. #health #saunabenefits #workout #sweat #sandiego
