Many people turned to at home exercise when the pandemic hit.
- Even though most gyms and exercise facilities are back open now, the majority of people enjoy working out at home and continue to do so.
I personally like to work out at home because I don’t have to worry about other people using equipment or crowds when I exercise. It is extremely important to turn the air conditioning on during an at home workout. If you have ever been to a gym, you have probably noticed that the thermostat is set to a low temperature at all times. The reason the thermostat is set to such a low temperature is to protect the members at the gym. When you exercise , your body temperature naturally increases. If the gym was not set to a cool temperature, people would pass out from heat exhaustion left and right. The same concept should apply for your at home workout. Even if you think you do not need the air conditioning on because it is not hot outside, you should still turn it on to be safe. In addition to protecting your body, having an air conditioned house may actually motivate you to work out. If your house is hot, you will be more likely to want to lay down on the couch instead of lifting weights. If you are worried about spending too much money on your electric bill, you could invest in a smart thermostat and program it to turn on when you know you will do your workouts. Air conditioning can help you stay fit at home.
