sauna or heat room good for warmup?

[falatall31]

I have a huge problem with my muscles being cold all the time, i just naturally have cold skin and my boyfriend is always having to warm me up. this is why i believe i keep pulling muscles in the gym. would going to a sauna or steam room before my workouts help with this issue or is there something else I am doing wrong?

I would go to sauna after training not before. Get your muscles warm.

warm up properly before lifting weights. your muscles will warm up that way. maybe even do some cardio.

Sounds like you have a medical condition

 

[dylangemelli]

save the sauna for after you workout

 

[Mobster]

Ok - cold skin doesn't mean cold muscles. And warming up has nothing to do with skin temperature.

 

[cbbram]

try some cardio to get warmed up before training

Warm up with light weights for every body part you are training.

wear more layers

Warm up with light weights or bands, or maybe light cardio. You could also try wearing sweatshirts or hoodies to help as well. I wouldn't use the sauna until post-workout.
