Is Working Out In The Heat Bad Or Good? by 9jatrend: 5:34am On Sep 12, 2015 |
Working out in the heat can't be said to be good or bad; it's just a matter of understanding how the weather works with your body and you being able to use it to your workout advantage. Hot weather has it's benefits as well as cold weather; one of the benefits of hot weather is that the veins are not constricted as it happens in the cold, making the flow of blood slow. As earlier mentioned, understanding how the weather interacts with your body is key. If you are big or obese, you need to know that fat traps heat, so when you workout, you would need to take extra care than a slim or small sized person. Generally, light clothing are better for workout during hot weather, cold water to rehydrate and keep your body's internal temperature cool is also necessary. Pay attention to your body signals because the body burns off more energy in heat . When your body gives you signals of being tired or over heated, know it's time to take a rest. Heat saps energy, so you may not be able to push yourself doing very intense exercise as you would in cold weather. Sometimes, try working out inside an air-conditioned place to reduce heat effects on your body. In order to regulate body temperature, the body sweats more under high heat and loses lots of nutrients and minerals; ensure you consume foods, fruits and vegetables in the hot weather that are sufficient to provide your body with adequate nutrients and minerals before, during and after workouts With every one centigrade increase in internal temperature, the heart beats faster by ten beats so avoid making your heart work harder than necessary. With these cautious steps followed, working out in hot weather should be okay. Source - www.9jatrend.com |
