Exercising outdoors vs. indoors benefits?
Quick question for you guys:
Lets say I run 5 miles on an outdoor track in 90F of hot sun, and my clone runs 5 miles on an indoor track with no direct sunlight and at 70F.
Does the temperature and sunlight make a difference on calorie burn/ fat burn, or any other factors? Obviously running in 90F sunlight will cause you to sweat more than 70F in the shade, but does the act of sweating do anything beneficial towards weight loss, or is it purely water weight that will replenish itself? Assume both runners are in perfect health and fully hydrated.
I'm not looking to lose weight, I have just always exercised outdoors and was curious if it has any benefits.
