Stay Hydrated!

Get Fit and Stay Healthy!

The weather's cooling off, and it's a fine time to get out and do those work-outs you've been planning all summer. However, it's still pretty hot out there, and dehydration and heat stroke are serious concerns. Here are some tips for staying healthy during summer workouts:

  • Most importantly - stay hydrated! Drink lots of fluids - especially water - and avoid alcohol and carbonated or sugary drinks, which cause dehydration.
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing made from lightweight, breathable materials, such as cotton.
  • Try to exercise when it's cooler and less humid - early morning or evening.
  • Listen to your body - if you get dizzy or start to cramp, give yourself a break.

Find you don't have time to go to the gym during the week? Here are some easy ways to work those muscles without shirking the other responsibilities of everyday life.

  • Skip the elevator and take the stairs instead.
  • If you take public transporation, get off a few stops earlier and walk the rest of the way.
  • When you drive somewhere, park at the far end of the parking lot.
  • Take a short walk during your lunch break.
  • Try doing crunches, squats, or lifting weights when you watch TV instead of just sitting there.
