    Don’t Dehydrate Yourself While Exercising

    Throughout summer I have noticed people tend to work on their body so that they can create the best summer body possible might be to show off or just to have a killer beach body with a proper tone to impress and look the part of a Baywatch star, however in this pursuit with hot temperatures and more and more people venturing outdoors running, going on a hike, cycling on different routes or just having a nice brisk walk, your body might be getting the essential vitamin D however even if you are exercising indoors always do take the necessary steps to avoid overheating, dehydration while you work out and exercise.

    While exercising indoor at the gym this presents fewer risks of dehydration that having an outdoor routine would, even if the dead of summer indoor temperatures are quite different than outdoors with adequate air conditioning is going to vary from a basic 68 to 74 degrees and the fans makes it quite better to exercise indoors than outdoors however with the right equipment and if you are well prepared you could burn better than indoor exercises while exercising outdoors. Research shows us that while running and working out the body’s temperature can go up to 20 degrees to the surrounding temperature and when you combine 95 degrees temperature to that you might have risks of getting overheating more than before or if you would have done some basic exercises inside be it in a fitness center or a gym, doing aerobics, yoga or working out in a gym.

    Luckily it’s seen that our sweat glands are designed in such a way that water somehow secrets onto the skin for evaporation after the blood has been brought to just under the skin surface which cools the body down however being outdoors for multiple hours getting heat struck is when the water doesn’t even help the body as constant hear and strong rays of the sun ay even cause skin cancer and damage to the body. If you really want to start exercising and want to go into this field why not check out some of the gyms for sale in your area by logging onto the only online platform that can give you an awesome experience and check out We Sell Gyms.

    So it advised in such an instance why not take precautions and exercise indoors if you want to experience hot doors then keep a hat, ample amount of water so that the body stays well hydrated. If you are in good shape and still want to exercise outdoors despite the heat index, shorten your workout time. Your heart rate will rise faster, as it will be harder to cool your body. Your workload can be significantly shorter and should stay within your target heart rate zones.

     

    One would need a daily body weight count such as a weighing machine count or a fat indicator so that you are able to count the numbers to track how much water you are losing after workouts and how much fat you can lose in the time period.  Exercising in high heat will make you lose body water more quickly than working out in normal temperatures. Whether exercising indoors or outdoors, if you weigh before a run, record a number, and weigh again after a run and the number is 5 pounds less, guess what: you did lose 5 pounds, but it is 99% water.

    There is basically little time to push yourself and time to stop however the body has built a stop point which tells you what its maximum limit is and if you ever feel dizzy or lack of strength, one should stop the workout and find a way to cool your body, why not take some rest between your sets have a light walk or take a warm shower.  If you feel like you are high temperature, run cold water above your wrists for little minutes. This will cool the blood traveling back to the heart and it’s a fast way to lower your core temperature. So the conclusion being take good care of your body, have lots of water and keep your water intake at an all time high especially while exercising outdoors, keep sunscreen and try to cover yourself properly so that your skin doesn’t get burned and you don’t get dehydrated.
