Stay Hydrated

Whenever you do decide to brave the heat and head outdoors, always make sure you stay hydrated and drink plenty of water before, during, and after exercise. Remember to drink every 15 minutes while exercising and if you're sweating profusely you might want to replenish your electrolytes with a sports drink. If your urine is darker in color, that could be an indication that you are dehydrated and need more fluids.
