When the temperature outside the window rises above 30 degrees, then, doing regular workouts, it is very important to take this into account. It is worth revising the mode and load. This is due to the fact that with an increase in temperature and stress on the body, there can be not only dehydration, but also heatstroke.
With increased stress on the body, a person begins to sweat and, if at an average temperature, sweat cools the surface of the body, evaporating normally, then this does not happen in the heat. And the result is an increase in body temperature and heart palpitations.
Experts say that exercising on a summer day can lead to twice as much fluid loss as exercising at other times of the year. And if at this time to reduce fluid intake, then it is very easy to get heatstroke, followed by a decrease in energy and loss of strength. Heatstroke is overheating of the body, which is a consequence of the body's inability to cool itself. It begins with a failure in normal functioning, namely due to a low percentage of fluid in the cells of the body. A person stops sweating and a jump in temperature occurs. It should be noted that in athletes there is a type of heatstroke in which sweating does not stop, the body temperature rises and the state of consciousness changes.
You can check your condition using ordinary scales. You just need to weigh yourself before and after training. This will be an indicator of the body's water loss. Some experts suggest adding glycerol to the drink 30 minutes before training, which allows the kidneys to retain fluid. And also you should not spray yourself with water, but you just need to drink it, thereby cooling the body.
Switching to the summer training schedule, you need to re-select the load. You should always start with a small amount of exercise to give your body a chance to rebuild. As a rule, the body has time to rebuild itself in two weeks. It is recommended to gradually add the load. Classes should be conducted in the morning, when the air is not yet hot. And for training, it is advisable to choose clothes that drain fluid.
