Summer is one of the most fitness demotivating times when fitness freak gets slow and this is the perfect time to stay active. In this guide, I will explain to you how you can be fit and active in hot weather.
1. Take some extra precautions in the heat.
Summer heat could cause many health issues if you ignore the basic safety tips. Basically, if the outside temperature is lower than 28~30 Degree Celsius then it is a good time for outside activities but it is more than 30 Degree Celsius then you need to take some extra precautions or completely avoid going outside unless it sunsets.
If you are planning for some exercise sessions the follow below precautions.
Drink a sufficient amount of water. It helps you to keep cool and calm all the time and it because very important thing too when it’s hot out and when you do intense exercise.
Do exercise in the morning or evening. The best time is morning as the temperature is cool during this time. Avoid any heavy exercises and especially in summer seasons take rest breaks frequently.
Wear light-colored (white is best) and breathable clothes. It will help your body to breathe properly.
Notice the early signs of heat exhaustion. Like nausea, dizziness, cramps, and headache. If you notice any signs, stop your activity right away, cool off, and drink fluids.
2. Take your toughest workout indoor.
As we all know most of the roughest workout is not done indoors, still there is a number of exercises that could be done inside the house, so not every time you have to go outside for maintaining fitness. Make use of spin bikes and rowing machines, as they are enough for tough workouts.
3. Play tennis for full body workout.
Tennis is a most focused game and can be played in gardens which will help you to absorb most from nature. Playing a tennis game requires the use of complete body and a half or one-hour gameplay is enough for anyone to complete his portion of a full-body workout.
