Can regular sauna sessions help prepare for one of the hottest environments on Earth? In this episode, I'm testing a 20-minute sauna session at 126°F as part of my preparation for crewing the Badwater 135. While a sauna can't fully replicate Death Valley, it provides a controlled environment to practice heat exposure, hydration, and learning how my body responds. Follow along as Heat Lab explores practical heat-training strategies that can help runners, hikers, endurance athletes, and anyone preparing for hot-weather adventures. What heat-training methods have worked best for you?
