Bro i have been going threw this myself really bad. I work out in the heat for alot of the day and it is definetly wreaking havoc biggest problem is lack of appetite. Even when i think im hungry i try eating and cant. Its making me overall energy level non existant. I have had to minimize my routine to make up for the calorie deficit for my current goals and well being. I have realized that if i super load on water like early in the day because i lift before going to work about hour 35 minutes after waking..so i slam 2 bottles before gym and fill and down at least 3 more bottles while i lift, 1 of those first bottles i put electrolytes in either salt or flavored electrolyte. And loading up like that really has helped my overall feeling. i still cant eat as much as normal but can make myself swallow a couple bites for each meal. I drink a couple more bottles througout the day while im sweating my ass off and then right before bed drink aother whole bottle with electrolyte. The next couple hours after the gym sucks tho because i piss every 5 minutes. Also i recently stopped taking all the vitamins first thing in the day i cut the dose and twice a day to once a day when i get home from work. I take mag , k2,d3 b12 and a mens multi. Reducing that and changing the intake time has really helped as well as i have started to actually take cooldown breaks which is really hard for me to do with my workload and my feeling of responsibility but i had to listen to my body because it was really tearing me up before i listened and now im trying to bounce back after moving backwards because it was definetly doing more damage than i could recover from. Try those if you can and good luck because physically its a scary bitch and mentally i was going down a hole. I Know exaxtly what your going threw and feel for you brother.
Try to stand under a fan if one is available! Look for moving air wherever possible. Take more time between sets to give yourself extra time to recover. HEAT IS THE ENEMY OF EXERCISE!
Maybe u just cant handle the heat brother, or u might have experienced some heat stress. Very important to be Hydrated and keep ur body cooler. Not just drink some water today because its hot, but keep a well balanced daily water intake. I work in extreme heated conditions all day. So whenever my hydration gets off balance or maybe I got a little too hot on occasion it wld affect me days later with exhaustion, leaving me feeling drained and wore out. So be careful training in this heat. I workout later in the day, even steel can only handle so much heat.
Yes bro i cant handle the heat exactly what u say makes me feel energyless and wore out the whole day, it has nothing to do with being a pussy or anything, just cant handle it, i can work under -20 celcius no problem, but when it gets +30 celc thats what fks me up, i try to stay hydrated the whole day being balanced tho
We clown around not being able to handle the the heat, but Heat stress is a silent killer. Itll take down the best of us. U deffinately need to be aware of it if ur running a cycle, because higher blood pressure can bring it on faster. Not saying this is what u might be experiencing but just to be concious of it. Sometimes we don't realize how much we push ourselves in this heat. Nothing with being a pussy.. lol.
I know bro, but the other guys were saying its just bein a pussy thats why, yes i try to workout at night now, it just sux i only eat 1 meal afterwards and sleep
cant complain I train at 35+ Celsius ed and iam on tren aswell its rough but no one got results sitting cozy and drink cold beers !!
100-110 degrees here the last 2 months. House has AC and cooled to 70 no matter what. Gym sits at 72 year round as well. Car has remote start with AC so its cool by the time i get in it. Not sure what heat you guys are complaining about
The more I sweat the more I feel like an animal I love that shit. I love feeling the sweat poor off my face.
Drag all the gym equipment outside to the grass an tell em to turn on the sprinklers. U could bring the slip n slide as well
Kidding aside. The gym is a brief period of your day. You can push through it or find a gym with better ventilation or AC. I hate the heat as well but in the gym I welcome it. You are there to work, sweat, and endure some serious strain so it's not like your there to take nap. As others have said, drink plenty of water. Maybe even occasionally dampen a workout towel and put it over your head or back of the neck when you take a breather between sets. Take longer breaks if needed. As far as eating, I feel ya on that one. I workout during my lunch break. When I get back to the office I feel the hotter it is the harder it is to eat. But I put my desk fan on blast, sit in front of it, and chug lots of water to get the food down. Find a way to cope so you can stay focused in the gym and dedicated to eating. Maybe shorten your duration in the gym and work up to longer sessions. Maybe acclimate to a hotter more humid atmosphere by spending time in the sauna. I'm trying to think outside the box for ya but I'm out of ideas.
Cant be a pussy all your life. I work all day out in the sun and its been 105 heat index here with the crazy humidity. Its not even summer time yet. When i get home around 4 in the evening i head out to the garage that has been closed up all day and lift . I bet its 120 out there.
You young kids and your video game mentality. Ewe its hot, i can't , bo hoo. Dont be a pussy
StevebWhy not? My gym is cold all year long, they got the temperature around 70. The only hard part is when I go running then I got to wait til the sun goes down.
Mind over matter

You can pretty well man up about the workouts. I work in a very hot job and still manage to eat. I’m a diabetic as well and it is imperative that I get my calories in. You just need a plan. Decide on the amount of calories you need for that day and divide and conquer. If I’m really hot I’ll eat a smaller meal, but follow up 2 hours later with another. It’s all on you brother and if I can do it, anyone can.
Where I live there are 33 degrees with an exaggerated humidity .... I wake up every day at 5:45 am, I do 45 minutes of cardio, shower, then I start work at 8:00 to 35 km away from home, I work until 12:30, I train at lunch break (the hottest hours), the gym is an oven, I arrive and first I take a shower, then I go to the weight room, I train 5 times a week. .... finished the training back to work at 14:30 and until 18:30, I do another 35 km by car to return home, where my son is waiting for me to play with him until 22:30, I prepare food and snacks for the next day, I can reach the bed at 23:30 if everything goes well .... Come on brother, you can not make you break down from a bit of heat !!!
The answer is simple. Watch the movie The Godfather.
"What can I do , what can I do? " .... " You can act like a man! "
You think Ronnie Coleman, Dorian Yates, or Branch Warren ever complained about the heat while they trained in a sweltering dungeon in August?
Get in your shakes, get in your liquid, stay hydrated, hit it hard and heavy, get in and get out. If you must train early or very late to avoid the most residual heat. If that doesnt work, try moving to Siberia.
Good luck!
Man up. I kind of like sweating more in the gym. Loosing a little more weight is a plus and you can workout less and sweat more, which makes you feel like you worked out more, so it’s a win/win! ;-)
RustyhookerMidnight or 5am. No people in there except the hardcores. Open benches. No meat market bs with newbs on cells doing selfies
Bro! You can get so many good selfies at the gym at 5am. No one in your way. Just dont forget your selfie stick
Mate I am right with you on this one - The UK is in the middle of a heatwave also and its just so counter productive towards training its untrue. Its just awful isn't it, when you are in it before training you are just constantly being drained of energy and strength so when you get there you are lucky if you are running on 50% to begin with! When you wake up normally you'd be starving where as atm I'm having to wait 10 mins to work up a bit of an appetite, constantly dehydrated also......But then imagine having to walk for 2 miles everyday just to get some dirty water to drink to survive on full of animal waste in 45 degree heat then it all puts it in perspective....
Exactly my problem... cant lift heavy weights with this heat so i just do cables
I moved to Prudhoe Bay,.......... heat is not a problem.

Maybe you could eat and train at night when it’s cooler?
I do that on my free days, workdays i cant cause i have to wake up rly early
Dominick77Do you not have A/C in your gym? Working out in the sandbox, under a nylon tent..thats heat..so hot that the steel bars/weights/dumbells will literally sear your hands w/out gloves.
nope, circulation is crap right there, 10 mins feels like im in a sauna, i didn't train for 3 days now, outside feels like oven
Well i can't i have college @7am... when im back it's 37 Celsius, really hard to eat with this heat
I train around 5am every morning. I have a pretty big appetite so it's not a problem.
It all starts out in the morning, I put my big boy pants on and go from there...
Don't forget your big boy belt ,too
