It is estimated that 11% of UK adults claim to be members of one of 6,000 health clubs in the UK with over 2.2 million adults holding gym membership.
Whilst the objective is to improve overall fitness and feel better, many exercise and workout enthusiasts have suffered from night sweats that aren't attributed to health concerns. Fitness experts say that this nocturnal perspiration can result from the body's need for a prolonged period of temperature re-adjustment after a vigorous workout.
For those whose sleep is interrupted by periods of extreme sweating during the night, DermaTherapy® bedding can help. "Reducing the discomfort and sleeplessness associated with night sweats pays off for those on a workout regimen who know getting at least eight hours of quality sleep each night is critical to getting maximum benefit from their exercise programme," said Chris Steeples, MD of Espère Healthcare Ltd. "DermaTherapy Bedding has been shown to improve sleep quality by more than 60 percent in clinical trials."
Many people relate night sweating to an effect women experience during menopause. But in reality, there are many reasons that people, both men and women, can encounter night sweats. Night time sweating related to a rigorous workout regimen falls into that category.
Medically speaking, a body's temperature varies throughout the day, ranging on average from 36 degrees in the morning to over 37 degrees in the early evening. During exercise, more than 70 percent of the energy the body uses to power muscles is converted to heat. During a workout, the body can typically get as warm as 40.5 degrees, causing it to trigger its sweat mechanism to dissipate the excess heat. For serious exercisers, especially those who work out at the end of the day, the sweating can persist until well after bedtime.
