What Is a Sweat Suit?
A sweat suit is a specially designed training outfit usually made from heat-trapping materials like PVC or neoprene. Therefore raising your core temperature and stimulate extra sweating during workouts. Also known as a sauna suit, it mimics the effects of a sauna by elevating sweat output, helping fighters drop water weight quickly in the lead up to a fight.
How Do Sweat Suits Help with Weight Cutting?
Sweat suits help you shed temporary water weight by promoting rapid sweating. They:
-
Increase core body temperature during cardio or circuit training
-
Accelerate perspiration, expelling fluids stored under the skin
-
Help you reach target weigh-in goals faster
-
Improve mental toughness and simulate high-heat conditions for fight prep
They are not a fat-loss tool, but a short-term weight cutting aid widely used in combat sports.
How to Clean and Care for Your Sweat Suit
To extend the life of your sauna suit and maintain hygiene:
-
Hand wash – always check the label
-
Avoid tumble drying – hang it up to air dry naturally
-
Wipe down after every session - with a damp cloth or hand wash
-
Avoid harsh detergents or bleach - these can damage the sweat-retaining layers
Regular cleaning prevents odour build up and bacteria growth, especially after intense sessions.
