<p>Sure - you understand how to deal with "hot" weather with your outdoor activity. How do you know, though, when it's TOO hot? What does humidity do to things? How do you read the signs, and how do you stay safe?</p>

<h2><strong>We do this dance every summer.</strong></h2>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Just about every fitness blog out there writes a "summer fitness tips" blog post of some sort. Honestly, it's all always the same stuff. It's not even hard... <strong>it's <g class="gr_ gr_158 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar only-ins replaceWithoutSep" id="158" data-gr-id="158">stuff</g> we all know. </strong><em>It's obvious.</em> Things like "wear sunscreen", "hydrate", "dress/gear up appropriately" - like I said... it's obvious. But we fitness bloggers always write it - because you'll read it. And you always read it - because, I don't know, maybe you're thinking one of us bloggers is <em>finally</em> going to impart some kind of magical new advice to you. I have some bad news for you - <strong>that's not going to happen.</strong> There's good news, though.</p>

<h3>Heat waves and humidity are no joke.</h3>
<!-- /wp:heading -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If you're not expecting it (and sometimes even if you are) regular "summer heat" can quickly turn into something much more dangerous. Heat in the mid 90's and above is bad enough, but when you combine it with high humidity and stagnant, no-breeze-in-sight air... you've got a recipe for disaster. When conditions are tough enough, and you're not expecting it, you can end up dizzy, nauseous, and suffering from heat exhaustion - or even heat stroke.</p>
