Answer To Your Fitness Questions" />Summer Temperatures And Acclimation
July 2, 2008
1. In order to acclimte to the heat, workout in the heat. But go slow at it. Begin with as little as 10-15 minutes until you work up to 20-60 minute session. Most healthy people will take approximately 10-14 days to accomplish this.
2. Important to note, you lose acclimation quite rapidly, for instance for each 2 days of not working out in it, you lose one day of acclimation. In a period of 3-4 weeks of not working out in the warm temps you will be unacclimated again. Even after a short break like the weekend you lose very quickly the acclimation. So be wise.
3. Always drink plenty of water and check with your doctor, you may have some health issues that will prevent you from working out in the heat.
