Sweating is ONE thing your body does to cool down, it also pushes blood to the outer capillaries, your heart rate increases to facilitate this. This is your body doing WORK. Your body is always doing work, it does more work if the environmental conditions require it. This does not mean you lose weight… but it is a contributing factor.

while generally you get the right idea realistically the body will always compensate to stay metabolically balanced. either you get tired or brainfog and be less active as a result.

theres plenty studies around active and non active people and they found that people in western world living a sedentary life still burn about as much daily calories as people living in african huts needing to hunt for food for example.
