Joined a new gym last night. Hilarious

I appear to be the only person in my gym who sweats. I mean, I have to wipe my brow between sets and my perspiration soaks through my t-shirt. No one else seems to perspire.
The people in the weight room seem very focused on thier "pump" and they do a lot of grunting, but not sweating. Are they so much more advanced than I that thier training isn't as comparatively strenuous? Will I stop sweating one day?
Should I consult my physician about this?

What you dont want is what I had last week: sweat that reeked of Ammonia. It was horrible.

I have always sweated like a pig. Huge, copious streams of it. Now that the weather is cooling (finally!) here, it's not so bad. But I have to keep a sweat towel in my truck to keep mopping off after even easy cardio.

I like it. Like a finely aged cheese.

Every other 45lb or 20KG plate ever made in the history of the universe is 450mm. I know Rogue caters to Xfitters who never have any reason to ever put more than 495 on the bar (and even then, it's only for one of those three-person DL photo-ops), but why would they not think that someone might eventually DL 525? Overall, Rogue is an awesome company. I would without a second of hesitation recommend every single person buy pretty much everything ever from them. But the High-Temps are just incredibly stupid. Even dumber than all the insane, unnecessary, bonkers expensive stuff they make. Because those insane, unnecessary, bonkers expensive stuff isn't made wrong.

There is a lot of equipment that is not built to Olympic specs.
Both new and old York plates are smaller than 450mm.
Pretty sad for such a well known brand. They're not the only one, either.
I put a tape measure on a few brands at my local gym liquidator.

I sweat quite a bit, too. What makes me laugh are the gym bros who workout in hoodies with the hood on even when it's not cold out. I saw a dude doing moderately high rep deadlifts at 335 the other day wearing just that. I'd be soaked with sweat and fermenting between sets. I've put on a jacket between sets before working out in a warehouse space, but that's it

It's been 60 degrees in my garage the last few times, still sweat quite a bit. It needs to be around 35-40 for me to not really sweat. Around 60 is probably the most overall comfortable temperature though, all things considered.

I'll put my hand up as a non sweater. Takes temps over 30C and 90% humidity, plus some cardio work before I'm what you'd consider "sweaty"

Everyone is different. There's a treadmill jogger guy at my gym who drips with sweat. That stuff flies off him in every direction, and the last 5 minutes of his training is spent with a spray bottle and some paper towel trying to clean up after himself.

Used to do martial arts with a guy we dubbed aquaman. We worked on a basketball floor and had to keep moving around so the puddles would have a chance to evaporate. If the class stopped to listen to the instructor, there'd be a big ass puddle around where he was standing. It was actually kind of dangerous since it got so slippery.

Sometimes I forget. I'm one of those "if you ain't sweatin', you ain't workin'" kind of guys. I figured the guys in the gym were just there to ogle themselves. Point taken

Have we met? Sounds eerily similar to my workouts...
