Beat the Heat: Smart Summer Workout Tips

Summer in Oklahoma can sizzle, but that doesn’t mean you need to slow down. Here’s how to keep your cool and stay safe:

  • Pick your time wisely. Early mornings and evenings are cooler and more comfortable for outdoor workouts.

  • Hydrate like a champ. Drink water before, during, and after your workout. If you’re sweating a lot, add electrolytes to the mix.

  • Dress for success. Light, breathable clothes help your body stay cool. Choose light colors and avoid heavy fabrics.

  • Take breaks. Listen to your body. If you feel dizzy or tired, pause, sip some water, and rest in the shade.

  • Protect your skin. Sunscreen is your best friend. Reapply often, especially if you’re sweating.

  • Try indoor options. When the heat is too much, Edmond’s gyms and fitness studios are cool, comfortable, and ready for you.
