I love working out in the heat. My body feels so amped and ready to perform when I'm sweating during a workout. Sometimes it will take me more than 20 minutes to warm up when it's cold, but I can get started and be ready to work hard within 5 minutes on a hot day.

There are few practices more cathartic than sweating your ass off all day, then taking a cold shower later that evening before you go to bed. Slept like a baby when I did this on Saturday!!

Have you done any research on LMNT or LiquidIV or any of those salty hydration products? They are absolutely having a moment right now and it seems like everyone is drinking them all the time. I drink LMNT when I'm in the middle of a 24-hour fast, but I get the feeling that they shouldn't be consumed as often as I'm seeing. I definitely feel like the average American doesn't struggle with getting enough salt in their diet, and it seems crazy to add more on top of what most people are already getting.

Kinda random, but I think the hydration conversation could go even further than what you've already started in this article! There are so many hydration fads to examine. Sports drinks, salty drinks, Mobile IV units, so many things.

Can you elaborate on the humidity bubble? I tend to sweat a lot and it is always super humid here in KC in the summer. Not sure what the takeaway should be for this one.
