In my community, I’m basically the only one who uses the sauna. However, today, somebody else was using the sauna, or at least it looks like they used it. The bucket had water in it, and the temperature had been raised to 100 c. Normally I only do 80° c, but I thought f*** it, if they can do it I’ll give it a shot.
Man, that is a wildly different experience! I could only last 13 minutes, not my usual 20. My toes and my ears were burning towards the end, which I normally don’t get ever on 80°. Toward the end I was slapping my knees in my back like a crazy person just to keep the minutes going.
Yep, for me 80C is just comfortably chilling after a cold day, while 100C is very uncomfortable and feels like a workout.
