Summary
Sweat isn’t a reliable gauge of workout intensity, says Adam Collins of the University of Bath. While more challenging exercise does produce more heat—and can trigger more sweating—many other factors influence how much you perspire. Environmental conditions (like temperature and humidity), your clothing, and personal traits (age, fitness, sex, body size, and climate acclimation) also matter. Instead of judging effort by sweat alone, use better indicators: your breathing rate, how hard you feel you're working, or your heart rate (via a smartwatch or chest strap). That said, if you're drenched post‑workout, it's a clear signal to rehydrate.
