Should I swim or sauna first?
SWIM IN THE POOL FIRST Taking a dip in the pool before you relax in the sauna could be exactly what helps you unwind. With your workout done, you’re ready to rest your muscles. The sauna’s penetrating heat has been shown to speed up the recovery process. This is especially true if your pool water is on the chilly side.

A cold shower after your sauna can also activate cold shock proteins in the body, which may help assimilate fat for weight loss.
