Aloha,

i sweat pretty much when i train CO² tollerance with empty lungs.
Are there any reason why? Pulse drops to 45 while contractions kick in. So high heart rate is not the reason.
 
I'm in no way a doctor. Just a biology student.

The low rate could be because the body recognizes there isn't much oxygen to circulate anyways. The sweating is probably from your body trying to maximize the oxygen it has I.e it's going to sweat to keep cool and maximize efficiency

high CO2 in body stimulates sweating

For the reason that..

Co2 is a result of cellular respiration. And high cellular respiration (working out) usually results in sweating to cool down.

In the case of apnea the Co2 is purposefully being built up by you holding your breathe; and the body responds by recognizing the presence of higher Co2 and sweats even though there isn't necessarily high cellular respiration occurring such as in running.

One more reason is when breathing air, the outside air helps cooling down body temp. When holding it for minutes then exhale, you can expect pretty warm breath coming out of nose. I hold my breath when I feel cold.
