Avoid heat stroke



Heatstroke during sports activities. I leave an article by Andreu. He speaks of heatstroke and is a very consistent theme in the times ahead.

The post is aimed at preventing heat stress when we do sports, but can be applied to everyday life too.

Remember that Andreu can design a personalized exercise program for weight loss for you.

How to prevent heatstroke

Now arriving on hot days many people are preparing to go to the beach with a little less weight and is released to exercise. One of the most common practices is to go running, walking or cycling. Within minutes feel like the temperature rises and we should take some precautions.

Although the human body is an almost perfect machine when it comes to regulation of body heat in hot or very cold days the mixture of heat and exercise can saturate this capacity and we can lead to dehydration, muscle cramps and heat stroke, which is a major medical emergencies.

The best defense against heat is physically fit to accompany the few simple steps, follow them and you're away from the "hot issues".

1. Drink before, during and after exercise. Half a glass of water before enough. Although you are not thirsty.
2. Try to replace fluids that you lose about a half-drunk glass of water every 15-20 minutes.
3. It replenishes lost electrolytes with sports drinks.
4. Avoid very sugary drinks, the body needs much time to assimilate.
5. Exercise in the cooler hours of the day.
6. If possible change your place of training to locations covered and well ventilated.
7. Use cotton clothes and better colored.
