Is sweating a sign of a great workout… or just a hot room? In this episode of The Fit2 Perform Podcast, Bobby and Steffan get sweaty—figuratively (and probably literally)—as they break down what sweat actually tells us, bust the myths around it, and explain how it ties into performance, recovery, and even mindset. 🧠💧
In this episode:
💦 What Is Sweat?
We explain the science of sweating—why it happens, what it’s made of, and what it does for your body beyond just making your shirt soggy.
🔥 Sweat ≠ Fat Burn
Time to kill the myth: Just because you’re drenched doesn’t mean you’ve torched fat. We talk through why sweat isn’t a direct sign of calorie burn or progress.
🧂 Hydration & Electrolytes
Sweating isn’t just about water. We look at how to stay properly fuelled and hydrated when you’re sweating buckets—especially during shows, rehearsals, or summer gym sessions.
🎭 Performers & Sweat
Let’s talk quick changes, stage lights, and staying energised during an eight-show week. We look at how performers can manage sweat for both performance and recovery.
🧘 Sweat & Mindset
From saunas to stress relief, we touch on how sweat can also be a part of ritual, routine, and mental reset.
Whether you’re a chronic sweater or someone who finishes a workout bone-dry, this episode will change the way you think about sweat—and how you manage it.
