I am now at teh stage in my workouts that my pt can get me into HIIT to try to burn off this fat..fat...FAT ! ! ! ! !
But now I am experiencing the sensation of being somewaht warm all the time....and breaking into a low grade sweat almost at anything. I was sweating writing checks at my desk yesterday. These arent hot flashes...I know a hot flash when I feel one. I am suspecting it is might be due to a heightened metabolism... increased circulation ... type thing.
I am wondering if any of you have experienced something similar when you have been on HIIT.
This might just be like you said a heightened metabolism but writing checks is not what i'd call an aerobic activity
Be careful that you're not overtraining easy exertion and rapid sweating is one of the signs If that's the case you're sabotaging your gains
The other you need to be careful of is bouts of hypoglycemia If this repeats itself pop a lifesaver if it goes away relatively quickly or this keeps up get an appt with your Doc to check it out
Because of prior health issues I would check it out to be sure. Are you taking any kind of supplement or fat burners at all? Those will do it everytime. I can also tell you that yes this does happen to some people with HIIT. This isn't the first time I've heard that. In my case I train twice a day so it seems I am almost always warm. However, a continuous low grade warmth/sweating is pretty different then hot flashes. Hot flashes should be checked out.

Oh, the hot flashes come with hormone-blocking therapy for prostate cancer. I am over those, thank god.
I did take Levitra seveal times last week. And Levitra makes the blood vessels in any part of the body dilate upon stimulation. So I found out that L. is great for the HIIT workouts. The blood vessels in the muscles dilate much more and endurance and recovery are much greater.
I was just interested if the sweating was a common occurence with HIIT.

Hey D -- These symptoms sound very familiar and I'm not even doing HIIT training. The p90X is intense enough and in some ways similar to HIIT.
Sweating at the drop of a hat (like on "The Simpson's Ride" at Universal); a low-grade fever; light-headedness; a queasy feeling.
I just went to the doc last Wednesday. The Physicians Assistant was kind of a bozo... but my Doctor finally came-in and attributed some of my symptoms to over exertion. I have made some very positive health changes in my life since January and he said my body may be changing, healing and growing. The Hypoglycemia may also be an issue. My brother is a licensed Massage Therapist who practices Eastern therapies. He also believes these are painful, but positive changes.
You have been on some prescriptions though... and with your history... I guess it's always wise to go to the Doctor. (Unless, like me you have a $2,000 dollar deductible that makes you think twice ... makes me want healthcare reform.)
