what is the purpose of those vinyl suits you jog in? you know, the suits that make you sweat till you drop. Will one of those increase your fat burn when you do cardio. Is their any advantage to running in one?

There is no advantage to them. The will only make you look silly and dehydrate quicker. A friend of mine in high school trying to get weight of for a wrestling meet put himself in the hospital from severe dehydration from wearing one while running. Hope this helps - Mike
