Busting, a Common
Myth About
Sweating, and Exercise.
According to Lifehacker,
how much you sweat is not
a reliable indicator of weight loss, .
fitness level or how
hard you are working out.
When your body
gets too hot,
beyond a
temperature
that’s healthy, .
little glands in your skin
secrete droplets of moisture.
Those droplets evaporate and
help lower your body temperature. .
It's just your body's way
of keeping itself cool. .
While exercising, your muscles
generate heat, raising your body's
temperature and causing you to sweat. .
Sweating more during a workout
doesn't mean that you're burning more fat.
It means that your body temperature is high and your sweat glands are trying to cool you down.
Sweating a lot can shed excess water weight.
However, losing water
weight is only temporary. .
Every pound of weight you shed
while working out is equal to
two cups of water, or sweat. .
It will be replenished the next
time you take a drink of water. .
Don't feel like you have to end every workout dripping in sweat to accomplish your fitness goals. .
Don't sweat it.

Phase One Investigative Maui Wildfire Report , to Be Released Next Month.
ABC reports that seven months after deadly
wildfires devastated Maui, an investigative
report will be released on April 17, 2024.
Hawaii Attorney General Anne Lopez commissioned the
Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) to conduct an
independent investigation alongside several local agencies.
The first phase of the investigation is meant
to analyze how the disaster unfolded during
the first 24 to 72 hours, as well as its aftermath. .
The report also includes
a comprehensive timeline of events. .
According to the AG's office, the FSRI research
team ran into unexpected delays while
gathering information critical to their review. .
In November of 2023, subpoenas were served to the
Maui Emergency Management Agency, the County
of Maui Department of Public Works and the
County of Maui Department of Water Supply.
Those subpoenas demanded materials relevant
to the investigation, including documents and photos, as well as video and audio recordings.
Being able to review all of the data,
which is extensive, has a tremendous
impact on the comprehensive analysis
of the fire incident and our
recommendations to make Hawaiʻi
a safer place to live, work and play, Steve Kerber, Ph.D., PE, vice president and executive director of FSRI, via ABC.
An analysis of this magnitude cannot be
rushed, and we must allow for the time
needed to make sure this investigation,
based on science, is done correctly, Anne Lopez, Hawaii Attorney General, via ABC.
I am confident that the Phase One
report will provide some answers
to the questions surrounding
the tragic wildfire incident, Anne Lopez, Hawaii Attorney General, via ABC
