Is there any benefit to working out in a hot environment as opposed to a comfortable environment?

Hi Nick. I can think of one particular instance where I purposefully use this type of “hot environment” training. When I’m working with an athlete who will be participating out in the environment, for example tennis players, I try to primarily train them outdoors. This will help them acclimate to the heat and better prepare themselves for their competition.
