Here are a few tips from Self Magazine.
Avoid dehydration and heat stress
Dehydration reduces exercise performance and increases the risk of heat-related illness. It can cause cramping of the muscles. Make sure you have adequate hydration and sun protection in hot and humid conditions to avoid the risk of injury.
Warm up and cool down
Warming up before exercise helps to loosen muscles, increase blood flow and prepare your whole body for exercise. Cooling down helps the whole body recover from exercise. There is some proof that warming up and cooling down can (slightly) reduce muscle soreness after exercise. Warming up has also been shown to improve performance during exercise.
Suggestions include:
- Warm up gently and slowly for 10 minutes or more before you begin your exercise.
- A light jog that gradually increases in intensity is a great warm-up exercise. Other options include cycling or going for a brisk walk.
- In cooler temperatures, a longer warm-up might be necessary.
- Cool down after sport. This could involve another light jog or perhaps a lighter form of exercise such as slow swimming or cycling.
