I run on the treadmill, but I very rarely sweat. I don't go that fast because I don't have the endurance yet because I'm just a beginner at it. So I go at a relatively comfortable pace. How can I make myself sweat without going extremely fast?
Why won't I Sweat?
Make sure you're not dehydrated.. if you're someone who as a rule doesn't drink a lot of fluids you may become dehydrated easily without really noticing, which would make you tired more easily and sweat less. It's very important especially when exercising to get enough fluids. If you meant how do I get a good work out without overdoing things.. find a pace that you feel you can keep up for a while relatively comfortably and extend the time you run/walk on your treadmill a bit every week. You should be able to build endurance that way. If your body bothers you, you get pains in your sides etc you're probably overdoing it. Make sure you stay hydrated. It might be a smart idea to talk to your doctor about your excessive so that any health problems you have can be taken into consideration and health problems you might not be aware of can be ruled out.. especially as a beginner it's always a good idea to get some advice from people with experience (doctor, fitness trainer people like that).
Good luck!

Heat.
Sweating is a biological reaction that is triggered to keep the body cool. If you are not in a warm environment and are running lightly then your body has no need to sweat.
Reply:First, keep going at the pace you're comfortable with. When you feel you're ready, turn up the speed to maybe a half-mile or full mile an hour faster than what you're going at (i.e., if you're running at 3.5, turn it up to 4.0 or 4.5). I've broken a sweat at 6.0 mph during a 10-minute run, but take things slow and gradually increase the speed over time. No need to rush.
Reply:Hey think of it as a blessing. I sweat too much it's gross sometimes. I'd LOVE to have your sweat glands. lol
I don't know how to answer your question, ask a doctor. sorry
