Hi,
Just curious if anyone else notices a HUGE difference in the amount of cardio you can do directly correlated with the temperature you are working out in? For example, our gym is sometimes above 80 degrees when a lot of people are working out and I notice I can barely push out half of my normal run and my HR shoots up to nearly 180 or above! When the gym is cooler (like mid 70's), I can make a longer run and my HR only gets to around 170-175 at most. What gives? Does anyone else notice such effects? (Even for those who run outside, does it matter how hot, cold, humid, windy, etc. it is?)
Thanks,
