If your muscles feel sore all the time your joints hurt you are not as strong as you used to be or your body feels really tired when you work out in the summer it may not be because you are weak. It may be because you are overtraining. In Lahore hot weather many people get hurt at the gym because their bodies are pushed too hard and they do not recover fast enough.

Why Summer Increases Gym Injury Risk
The heat in the summer affects how well you can work out because:
- Your muscles get tired faster
- You do not have water in your body so your muscles do not work as well
- It takes longer for your body to recover
- You lose things like salt and water when you sweat
- You may not sleep well
This makes it more likely that you will get hurt even if you have been working out for a long time.
