How to beat the heat when working outside

[@fabriziozetino]

This won't work in Arizona, stay away.

[@Convexhull210]

Fabrizio Zetino Y’all are lucky. You’ve got dry heat. Humidity is the silent killer. It makes sweating worse and forces your body to overheat

[@lexbeltran1354]

Dry heat is nothing compared to humidity.

How bout you come out here and say that haha you dont know shit about dry heat

Lived in both florida and texas.... both sucked. I do prefer dry heat tho just because you dont sweat as much.

[@davidwillison2849]

This doesn't work as well as you think down in NC or most Southern states. Texas got more dry heat then humidity imo but its no joke. I've worked outside for years and it's sometime hard to function lmao.

They literally just said "drink water". Yeah....duhhh y'think?! What else?? I just started delivering mail in rural AZ, and there is no shade. I drink water constantly and still end up with headaches and am miserable outside!

There are doo rags you can buy that you wet and can put over your head and/or neck. I wear one over my head as well as a sun hat. Also long sleeves that breathe actually help from getting sun beat.

[@Honduran791]

This is old but try rehydration with electrolytes. You can buy them in pharmacys. You mix a powder(electrolyte) with water and drink it. It works for me, im outside year round framing houses and it works.

Put a few drops of real ocean water in a regular water bottle and you'll see what happens..

[@CookingWithKenny918]

Gatorade? That shit straight sugar they promote it in the NFL but these athletes don't drink that lol

[@MelodiesForTheSoul]

Theres sugar-free gatorade! And as a construction worker, gatorade can be a lifesaver sometimes. That's just me personally. I buy sugar free gatorade and water it down so it lasts longer, stick it in a cooler and Ooooh man, does it help throughout the day in addition to lots of water.

[@jenniseed]

I work at a dry cleaner and let me tell you it gets hot when it's summer because we are using steam and it sucks im thinking of getting another job

[@Accreal]

I live in alabama and these tips are so obvious and don't help very much, Drinking water does keep you hydrated but it's still gonna be 112F regardless of how much water you drink

[@juniorbarker1570]

Lol I drank so much water and still felt sick, 100+ degrees and this humidity

[@ezio_Winchester]

I'm a construction worker who was born and raised and work around this thumb area of Michigan we don't get too much heat maybe like a week all year above 100 .. I'm a pipeline worker and travel for work like most of the guys that do that job and I got a job close to home and was used to the humidity but the guys that came from Alberta were dying cuz they weren't used to 90 percent plus humidity.. but then they are good with cold.. I was working 14 hour shifts doing a oil pipeline bore in Brandon Manitoba.. I went there in October so it was fall weather but by November in was negative 20 Celsius regularly.. coldest it got before I left there was negative 40 Celsius and I went home at Xmas time... I usually carry a water bottle or Gatorade in my back pocket while I'm at work and yeah out in Manitoba I could not do that .. was only like an hour after we started work and went to take a drink and it was frozen solid lol plus all the guys with facial hair had icicles from our breath lol... I'm ok with the heat I just drink more water and pace myself a little slower than usual.. just sucks for some jobs that require you to wear long sleeve shirts while on sight or my least favorite which is flame retardant coveralls which get worn over our normal clothes.. last year was doing fire watch for some welders and yeah it was like 95 f and with the coveralls I was covered in sweat

[@caryhowery2784]

So when office workers get to enjoy the bar after work others off the clock have to keep preparing for work off the clock.man that sucks

[@elchecoblog683]

VMysitc-v I drink water every hour or so so my body don’t over heat or use a cold towel place it over my neck bc it takes me like a good 15 min or so prepping a car for paint and by the time I’m done I’ll be soaked in sweet coming out the booth , and since where I live it’s summer and it tends to get hot out , I gotta stay hydrated good bc Im Gonna be working in a booth that’s hotter then outside,

Pray for all hardworking engineers during this heatwave..

[@50hellkat2]

Eat salty foods or take salt pills with that water.

[@50hellkat2]

The Best of Discord it allows you to hold your fluids longer instead of taking in and peeing out. Construction workers take salt pills sometimes to maintain electrolyte balance.

[@Convexhull210]

The Best of Discord You could also drink pickle juice and or eat a lot of mustard. Both will give you plenty of electrolytes without all the sugar

[@Convexhull210]

The Best of Discord learned it in sports medicine in high school.

A little bit

[@iwontreplybacklol7481]

Too bad these workers will have shorter lifespans. Yes, Sweating so much will shorten your lifespan. Not only is it very stressful on your body, but also sweating out all of your electrolytes and minerals in which you cant replace fast enough.

[@mermyuz9759]

Exposing your body to extreme heat and cold regularly is good for you im quite sure. It has been proven to turn back your biological clock. The Thing about minerals is true though it wont shorten their lifespan. Working Hard on a construction site everyday Will have negative effects for sure but not because of the heat.
