Summer is here, and with it comes the challenge of staying active while also staying cool. The heat can be intense, but don't let it deter you from maintaining your fitness routine. Here are some tips to help you work out in the heat and stay active outdoors.

1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Hydration is key when working out in the heat. Make sure to drink plenty of water before, during, and after your workout. This will help keep your body temperature down and replace any fluids lost through sweat.

2. Choose the Right Time

Avoid the hottest part of the day, usually between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Try to schedule your workouts for early morning or late evening when the temperature is cooler.

3. Dress Appropriately

Wear lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking clothing. This is where the Onyx Pro Sport Hijab comes into play. Designed for those hot summer days, this hijab is engineered to enhance your performance in any activity. Made with proprietary Honour-Cool fabric, the hijab features real sweat-activated cooling technology to keep you cool and comfortable during intense workouts. The ergonomic design includes mesh outlines on the cheeks to maximize airflow, ensuring optimal breathability. Dressing conservatively doesn't have to hinder your performance!

4. Embrace Water Activities

Swimming, paddleboarding, or even a simple water fight can be a great way to stay active and cool in the summer heat. These activities not only provide a full-body workout but also keep you refreshed.

5. Take Breaks

In the summer heat, taking breaks during your workout is not just a suggestion, it's a necessity. The high temperatures can put a lot of stress on your body, making you more susceptible to heat-related illnesses like heat exhaustion or heat stroke.
