are you taking sweat seriously surprise at the end
An ancient poem says: 'Hoeing crops at noon, sweat drips onto the soil beneath the crops.' Sweat has always been a symbol of hard work and dedication, but when people think of sweat, they often associate it with stickiness and unpleasant odors. In response, sweat declares that it won't take the blame. Let's listen to its monologue.
[The Confession of Sweat]
I am sweat, your lifelong companion, always by your side.
Water enters your body through your mouth, circulates throughout your body, and finally exits through your sweat glands, becoming me. You might think I'm just some salty water, but if you were to collect all the sweat your body secretes silently each day, it could fill a large water cup.
That hot summer day beside the chilled watermelon, with the incessant sound of cicadas,
The moment you gave your all to break through a critical point,
The first time you tried holding hands in love,
The most nerve-wracking and exciting moment of your proposal,
The moment you trembled all over while holding the baby you waited 10 months for,
Hot weather and a surge of adrenaline—all are my moments.
Do you remember? Maybe you only remember the laughter and tears. But don't forget, I was there with you all along.
Some people dislike me, thinking my presence brings them a lot of embarrassment. Makeup gets ruined, clothes get wet, and there's a smell. Some people love me, they relish the feeling of being drenched in sweat after exercise, and the cool breeze that takes me away also takes away the heat from their bodies.
In fact, whether you like me or not, I will always be here, living with you. Humans, my friends, please face me, face sweat.
[Sweat Facts]
On a normal day with regular physical activity, a person can sweat about 1 liter, equivalent to the amount in a thermos. During intense exercise, the peak sweat output can reach 10 liters. As you age, the amount of sweat decreases. People who love to exercise tend to sweat more on average, not just because exercise increases sweating, but because regular exercise speeds up metabolism, making them sweat more easily even in normal conditions compared to those who don't exercise.
The sweat glands in the human body can be broadly divided into two types: eccrine glands and apocrine glands. Eccrine glands are distributed all over the body and secrete water containing small amounts of salt and lactic acid. Apocrine glands, associated with hair follicles, are mainly found in areas like the armpits and secrete a thicker fluid containing proteins, lipids, fatty acids, cholesterol, and glucose.
Sweat itself has no odor, but when it mixes with bacteria on the skin's surface, it produces a smell. Certain body parts like the armpits, feet, and groin area are prone to bacterial accumulation, making sweat harder to evaporate and the odor more intense.
For runners, freely flowing sweat is a badge of honor, a fruit of victory, burning fat, and part of the joy of running. However, the smell and sticky feeling after running is a challenge runners must face.
As an editor who has been focusing on runners' experiences for many years, I strongly recommend Rexona, born for 'antiperspirant.' Rexona has been dedicated to 'refreshing body care' for a hundred years, aiming to make sweating more comfortable and refreshing, reducing the sticky feeling while helping the body maintain a fresh scent.
All you need to do is a light spray, and you can happily coexist with sweat. Spray Rexona before and after running; for longer runs (≥5KM), it can keep you smelling fresh; for shorter runs, it can keep your underarms dry and non-sticky; use it after showering to extend the refreshing feeling. This summer, join the Cool Battle with Rexona, invite friends, bring Rexona, and start running cool! Personalized badges, new Rexona products, fitness bands, and more great gifts await you as soon as you start running!
