It's summer in Atlanta and yes, it is hot! That's the most popular topic of conversation these days, isn't it? The weather can stop us from our normal plans, it can affect our home and office schedules as well as our driving schedules. And it also affects our workouts. Should you still work out when it is this hot in Atlanta?
Yes and no.
- Yes - you should still work out.
- Yes - you should modify your work out if you are outside.
- Yes - you should modify your work out if you are outside to do it either early morning or later evening, avoiding the mid-day, most hot part of the day.
- No - you should not work out outside if you have medical conditions which would make it worse if you did [allergies, older age]
- No - you should not work out outside if you are exhausted or just not feeling yourself because of heat exhaustion.
- No - you should not work out outside if you are feeling sick.
Otherwise -- get out there and work out! Yes, it is hot. But we live in Atlanta. And this is summer in Atlanta. It will get better. It could be worse -- look at Houston and other parts of Texas with 30+ days in triple digits and high humidity.
Don't let the weather become a temporary excuse that turns into a permanent excuse.
Some helpful tips for your workout:
- Heat advisory - Watch the weather forecasts and if it is calling for a heat advisory or harmful air conditions, then only work out in the early morning or later evening outside. Take your workouts inside if you need to.

- Stay hydrated - Not only during your workout, but before and after your workouts. You tend to sweat more when it is so humid, so combat that by staying hydrated.
