The summer is here and it is HOT! Here are a few tips for exercising in the heat:
- Wear sunscreen on your face, neck and hands! Unless you want age spots, in that case, please don’t wear any…
- Bring a spray bottle to cool yourself down when those burpees suck the life out of you…
- Pack a little towel or wristband to wipe your never-ending forehead sweat…
- Bring 2 bottles of water with lots of ice to quench your unquenchable thirst…
- If you cramp, add a little Gatorade or Vega Electrolytes to your water. About 1/4 Gatorade per bottle or 1 scoop of Vega.
- Wear sunglasses or a sun visor (it’s ugly but who cares)
- Bring some ‘Wet ones’ to wipe the sweat off your mat (or someone else’s sweat ewwwww…)
- Modify your exercises if you feel yourself overheating
- And of course… CHANGE YOUR RUNNERS every 6 months! … See you in the sun, everyone!
