    have you noticed when you are training in a humid place that you get tired much quicker.
    Humidity in my gym was so high today that after 3 rounds of shadow boxing I was breathing heavy and my stamina is pretty good as I run 3 miles plus sprints 3 times a week and train in the gym 5-6 days. Of course I finished all my training but it was harder and I felt a little gased out.

    Doesn't bother me as much, I grew up outside of Washington DC which is mind-numbingly humid; and I live at high altitude so I already have an advantage in terms of my red blood cell count.

    My trainer does that sometimes as well, I think he likes messing with us. Perhaps it's a test to see if we complain. We all know he smacks us in the face if we do that though :lol:

    It's like when he says "25 pushups" and someone asks "how many" he'll make it 50. He's a funny guy, I like stuff like that. I'm like a robot in training though, I never question anything, or even talk for that matter.
