Hyperhydrosis!: Some people have more active sympathetic nervous system and sweat more, independent of sporting activities. Obese patients sweat more, because more calories equals more body heat, and minor activity, ie. Walking, stairs, requires more work. Hormones can be a factor, ie. Menopause. So, you can see there is no one simple answer.
