Sauna Suit ordered from ebay (Korea)







Every time I'm doing my workout at the gym, I always wear my sauna suit. You may have noticed that already on some of the pictures I posted (on previous blogs) that I am wearing a sauna suit while doing exercises at the gym. For those who does not have any idea what I'm taking about, a sauna suit is a garment made from waterproof fabric designed to make me sweat profusely. It may be called sometimes a "thermal jacket". Sauna suits today are typically made of PVC or coated nylon cloth. The construction is typically in the style of a waterproof sweat suit, consisting of a pullover jacket and drawstring pants. The closures at waist, neck, wrists and ankles are all elasticated to help retain body heat and moisture within the garment. Some sauna suits includes a hood (on the jacket part) to provide additional retention of body heat.

I got two of these Kingston sauna suits from ebay. The product is made in Korea. I commonly wear this during physical exercise at the gym as an aid to weight loss. I also wear this if I'm doing outdoor running during early morning and evening. This helps a lot as an aid to my weight loss. By wearing this suit, this can cause a rapid loss in my body weight by loss of water. Even though the gym is airconditioned, my body temperature is high and I would sweat profusely. 

Just a disclaimer though, please do not wear this when running outdoors under the direct sunlight. The body temperature is multiplied several times when you are directly under the sun doing outdoor running and can lead to the possibility of heat stroke and dehydration. I suggest wear this only during early morning jog when the sun is not yet up or during evening runs. Thus, a sauna suit should not be worn while doing extreme exercise or in hot conditions. 


Some people said that the use of a sauna suit accelerates weight loss in exervise by an increase in metabolic rate and calorie burning. Others disagree, and that the only significant effect is temporary water loss that can be immediately reversed by drinking water. 

Well, for me I had positive effects wearing a sauna suit. It provides me the encouragement to do physical exercise. The increase in my body heat from wearing a sauna suit gives me the impression of getting a good workout. 


If you want to order a sauna suit then just go to Wushushop-Hyem ebay store. They only accept Paypal as payment and uses Korea post. It takes 10-15 days delivery to all countries.

  1. I only wear my sauna suit every other day. Over the years I have lost about 20 pounds exercising and wearing my Sauna Suit.

  2. I also bought two. Now I'm looking again for a smaller size. I guess I can use my XXL as a paint suit, and my XL as a paintball suit.
