What happens to the muscles when we exercise in hot weather?

When you exercise, the working muscles in your body create heat, which is transported around the body by your blood. As your body temperature increases, the blood vessels near the skin open up and the sweat glands work harder. Exercising in hot weather puts extra stress on your body. If you don't take care when exercising in the heat, you risk serious illness. Both the exercise itself and the air temperature and humidity can increase your core body temperature. To help cool itself, your body sends more blood to circulate through your skin. When heat is applied to a sore area of the body, blood vessels widen and blood flow increases to transport excess lactic acid and other toxins away from tired muscles. These muscles are also made more elastic by the heat, and nerve endings are stimulated to block pain signals. If you want to increase your muscle strength, doing workouts in the cold probably won't help. Muscles work best at hot temperatures. When muscles get cold, the force they can produce decreases. You are also more likely to get injured in the cold, but the extra risk of injury is reduced if you warm up properly.
