Fourth of July tournament temperatures ranged from 92 to 97 degrees.
This past week end and today at the basketball camp the indoor temps were in the 90's as the air conditioning was turned off.
I didn't say I didn't feel the difference. I said I was prepared for it. I keep my legs in shape. I bike. I run. I weight train. I get plenty of rest at night and I drink lots and lots of water.
If you can't prepare for it you shouldn't work that much. It's not good for you. If you make the choise to work that much without being prepared, then you shouldn't whine about it.
