In the last year I’ve upped my work outs and food intake and gained about 8 pounds. I’ve also begun to sweat a lot. My car a/c works great, but I keep a small wash cloth in my car because I occasionally need to mop up sweat--especially when I first get the car before it has a chance to cool down.
As recently as a couple years ago I’d notice sweat stains on huge bodybuilders just underneath their pecs and I used to think that was a strange place to perspire, but I’m sweating there now too!
I have never been one of those people who sweat a lot but I seem to be turning into one. Why is this happening? Can just a few more lbs make you sweat that much more? ???

Excess sweating means guilt. Can we rule that out?
Gaining extra muscular bwt, as opposed to fat, should not be the cause of the sweats. Changing meds or supplements (including herbs.. either a good or bad affect on the body) or a bad combination of both could have a bearing on the problrm. As we get older the body respones in a different way to those factors. Might be worth you while to get a blood test just to determine if it's something to be overly concerned about or not. May be only a non serious gland problem. The immune system/thyroid comes to mind also but that would only be in extreme cases. Healthy sweating is excouraged to balance the body. The sweats might just be a simple chemical imbalance in the body. Good Luck.

I sure do sweat at the gym, that is for sure. I wear two t shirts since one won't soak up all the sweat
-
I'll sweat but not profusely. usually wear an undershirt and a t-shirt overtop. If a good sweat gets going it will just be around the collar and in the center of my back. cardio is another story though.
-
I sweat in warm weather. In hot weather I'm soaked. I always thought I just don't respond well to the heat.
Hey, at least I'm physiologically prepared for the next ice age! ;D

Yes. I've always had the problem of excess perspiration though.

i sweat a ton... but it's nothing that a 10 minute ice cold shower won't stop

As you get fitter and healthier your body gets better at losing excess heat through sweating.

Not quite,
excessive heat has got multiple reasons.
Eating much, processing food generates heat.
Cardio not up to date,
better cardio(vascular system), bigger hart, less beats a second, less heat.
Check-out your supplements.
Do you use fat-burners, caffeine-supps, energydrinks etc. Maybe a mix in certain supps.

I actually like the sweat in the gym, makes me think I went all out
-
I hardly sweat much at all.
No matter what I do or what the weather conditions, I sweat far, far less than the average.
Never could figure out why...

I was spotting a guy on bench and some of my sweat dripped onto his face, boy that really fucked up his last few reps - and he was working with about 340.

I have no explanation for this but this is what happens to me. When I'm in great shape I hardly sweat at all. I can go for a 5 mile run and my shirt is damp in some places. When I'm heavier and lifting heavy when I run my shirt turns into a 4 pound wet rag. I think if you have an insulating layer of subcutaneous fat your body will heat up quickly and you will sweat like a pig.
