Philosophy / Spinning in the sauna?

What would the effects be on one's spinning/training?

    So, I recently got an infrared sauna, and I've been wondering what its effects on spinning would be. Similarly to spinning in the shower, would it be good training or practice to sauna spin? I'm not sure, as I haven't tried it yet. Has anyone done this? Lastly, would one need to spin an inkless pen to prevent damage, or would the heat of the sauna just screw up the pen/plastic/grips period? They're around 130 degrees. I hope I'm not the only one who's thought of doing this biggrin.gif.

    Perhaps the fact that it's 130-140 degrees in there and you are sweating like a pig? I'm gonna try it when I get my comssa though. laugh.gif

    well, the sauna is relaxing both mentally and physically. thus, it could help hone one's massive skillzzz11!!!11.....maybe. and it's not really a gross sweat, but that's true, it may be hard to spin with sweaty hands. this could maybe serve, like shower spinning, to increase one's ability to spin regularly and w/o sweaty hands though. I think it might be good for learning; if you can bakfall in a sauna, you can bakfall not in a sauna and probably better. I DO know, though, that the heat and infrared waves help one's hands and possible muscle/joint pain in the hands caused by spinning a ton. so that may play a role in the usefulness of it biggrin.gif. i'd do it, but i'm afraid i'd ruin my mod. think it would melt/ruin the body, grips, or inktube?
