Same goes for humid air....water molecules replace some of the oxygen molecles in air, so if it's humid, you're breathing in less oxygen than dry air.
Just so happens it's been a bit humid and still hot outside, so double whammy.
Don't forget to hydrate yourself a little extra when you're exercising in the heat! Your body will sweat more and needs more hydration to replace it! |
