MVP Boot Camp is a great outdoor workout, exercising outdoors in warm weather can be fun, especially since you have spent winter months inside.
However, understanding how to exercise in the heat is important.
Here are a few tips for working out in the heat
1. Drink plenty of water. It’s extremely important to stay hydrated before and during exercise. Be sure to drink throughout the day (stay away from coffee and soda).
2. Eat regularly. Try to eat small meals 5-6 times per day. Include lots of fruits and vegetables.
3. Wear light, loose fitting clothes that can breath. Cotton is always a good choice. If your outdoor activity produces a lot of perspiration, consider clothing that is designed to wick the sweat away.
4. Cover your head. Wear a loose, billed baseball or golf hat to cover your face from the sun.
5. Listen to your body. Stop exercising if you begin to experience muscle cramps, nausea, headaches, goose bumps on the upper body and unsteady footing.
