How do you stay active when it's too hot to do anything?

Question

I haven't been feeling motivated to exercise as much because it's been so hot lately. 😭

I solved that problem by buying an air conditioner for where the weights are. Before I did that, early morning before it got hot was the only way... and it wasn't working so well. I can't get into the lifting sort of mood all early like that and being forced to only do it during that time slot would conflict a lot with my adulting lifestyle... kids, wife, a job... all put a dent into just having a set schedule. On top of that my wife is military so it's not like I can just have her help me with anything whenever I need help. She simply can't and it's not an option. Air conditioner was going to be the only way to open up more time slots for me to fuck with.

That is why I have a gym membership. Controlled climate inside the facility to go with equipment to help with whatever workout I want to do. Track, pool, treadmills, bikes, free weights, resistance machines, etc.

No concern to be dependent on weather and can get best bang for your buck. Otherwise I just got back from the equivalent of hell last month.

Being outside and doing work in the heat and sun helps too. Using the body to lift, pull, push heavy things in high heat and humidity will be a quick way to burn calories and sweat, so long as you have water and stay hydrated with work rest cycles.

Do you have access to the internet at your house? Where I live, it's hot and humid, so I primarily exercise indoors this time of year.

I have a treadmill, so I'm able to get my tablet or music and jam out while I'm running.
Or I'll hop on YouTube- there are a ton of free fitness trainers on there that have everything from walking in place/indoor walking videos, yoga, and weight training.

Basically I just move. When I need motivation to exercise, I step on the scale. Seeing that number is a great motivation to not be lazy 😂

Exercise early in the morning or later in the evening after work. Do exercises that can be done indoors. Swim at your gym pool. Exercise in an air conditioned gym.

Those are the best alternatives. Good luckl.

My gym has A/C and stays at 18C. So if anything, really hot weather sees me go more often.

Plus, when I get home still with a high temp, a cool shower feels even better. And then I feel refreshed.

Ice water helps, too.

I run 🏃‍♀️ in the mornings when it’s not too hot… or go up and down the stairs at home for 10 minutes. My inner thighs were burning 🔥. And even do dance workouts with dumbbells at home. Or go for a swim?

I usually don't. Maybe once or twice in the whole month.

In October I'll be going back to 4 days per week though. Right now it is too hot. It was 117 yesterday and 115 the day before. Too hot to exercise for me.

I do manual labor for a living so everyday I’m at work I’m exercising.  But most gyms have air conditioning and are fairly cool and they have treadmills, stationary bikes and all kinds of stuff.

Too hot? If it’s not as hot as 50 degrees, then I’m fine. I can do pretty much anything with average temperatures. Fruitarians tend to tolerate scorching weathers. If it get that hot, I exercise at home.

It's like 100 degrees here in Texas so I don't do anything outside. Though inside I can use a bike or a treadmill for running.
