Get out and do some hard exercise you will sweat your ass off.



Late last month, the YMCA of Metropolitan Los Angeles abruptly and permanently shut down all its steam rooms and saunas. The closures, in eight of its 26 facilities, followed a June 4 fire that authorities believe started in a sauna and caused $1 million in damage at the Westchester YMCA.
The fire prompted the YMCA to closely examine all health and safety risks in the heated rooms, said Larry Rosen, president of the Los Angeles YMCAs.

"What doctors tell us is that the rooms should not be used before or after strenuous exercise--and that's exactly when people use them," he said. Rosen said the YMCA stopped building the heated rooms in new facilities 16 years ago, because of growing concerns over their safety. Because people in saunas and steam rooms are behind closed doors, it is difficult for YMCA staff to monitor them for signs of trouble, Rosen said. "We simply have no way of preventing people from using them improperly."
