Spring and summer are almost here! Warm weather can be ideal for outdoor exercise, but it also poses its own challenges when it comes to athletic attire. The right clothing can improve performance, increase comfort, and prevent heat-related illnesses. This article discusses how to dress properly when exercising and exercising in warm weather.

Material choices are key

As the temperature rises, the material of your clothing becomes a key factor. The best options are:

• Breathable and moisture-wicking materials: Technical polyester and merino wool wick sweat away from the skin, keeping you dry and cool.
• Lightweight and flexible materials: Fabrics containing elastane in particular offer freedom of movement and comfort.
• UV-protected fabrics: If your workout takes place in the sun, UV-protected fabric can provide extra protection from harmful rays.

Clothing style and fit

In warm weather, you should prefer:

• Sleeveless or short-sleeved shirts: They allow for better ventilation and cooling.
• Shorts and lightweight leggings: Leggings or shorts, especially those made of technical materials, are great choices. Alternatively, you can opt for the ever-popular capri leggings!
• Loose clothing: While fitted clothing is preferred by many, a slightly loose fit at the top can provide better ventilation and prevent overheating.

Good quality sports bras and socks

In warm weather, sweating increases, which makes choosing the right underwear important:

• Sports bras: Supportive and moisture-wicking models are the best choices.
• Socks: Breathable and moisture-wicking socks prevent chafing and keep your feet dry.

Sun protection

If you exercise outdoors in warm weather, don’t forget:

• About a cap or hat: Protecting your head from the sun prevents the risk of heat stroke.
• Sunscreen: The skin should be well protected from UV radiation.

Dressing for sports in warm weather requires careful planning and the right choice of materials. By choosing breathable, flexible and lightweight clothing, you can enjoy your exercise to the fullest even on hot days.
