If you are living in Broward County, you know we have skipped right over spring and into summer. Temperatures easily passing the 90-degree mark with humidity well over 50% make trips from the car to the front door feel like a marathon. As summer rolls on, here are tips to stay cool and avoid heat exhaustion while exercising through the next few months.
While it is great that summer presents with more daylight one down side is the heat that comes with it. Especially here in Florida, it can be a challenge to work with when exercising outside. The goal is to find ways to work around the heat rather than ending up with any serious heat-related illnesses. Here are 5 tips that will help you stay active this summer!
It is also important to do your best to balance your electrolytes as well. These are your positive and negative ions in a cell, which are fancy words for things like sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Although it is best to stay hydrated, do your part to make sure you are getting proper electrolyte balance as well. Over hydration can dilute the electrolytes in the body and lead to an imbalance that can cause heat camps or heat exhaustion. So keep snacks such as peanuts, bananas, and salads close by that you can eat throughout the day!
