Why do we sweat when we get really scared? It doesn’t seem to have an advantage to me. Also, cold sweat really smells. If your enemy can smell that you’re scared shitless, doesn’t help with surviving, right?
Because your body is anticipating heavy exercise, which will raise your temperature. Sweat you put out now is sweat you won’t have to work on later, when you’re either fighting or running for your life.
