Other benefit of exercising in summer is not provided by the exercise itself, but by the sun.

Do not forget that sports practice under the sun requires good skin protection. The exposure to ultraviolet rays can be dangerous and it is essential to use an appropriate sunscreen. You should also be careful with hydration. It is very important to consume fluids before, during and after physical exercise.
