Did you know that using a sauna after your workout can actually improve your endurance performance?
Researchers have found that post-exercise heat exposure, like a 15–30 min sauna, can lead to some powerful changes:
✅ Better blood flow (via increased plasma volume)
✅ More efficient cooling (earlier onset of sweating)
✅ Boosted oxygen delivery (higher red blood cell count)
✅Improvements in VO₂ max (your body's ability to use oxygen efficiently) and lactate threshold (how long you can go hard before fatigue kicks in)
In simple terms: your body becomes more efficient, and your performance improves, without adding extra training load.
Perfect for runners, cyclists, triathletes, or anyone who likes to push themselves and recover smarter.
Train hard. Recover hot. Perform better.
