長者常見排汗效率降低且心血管負擔加重，使其更容易罹患如熱射病等與熱相關的疾病。
Seniors often experience reduced sweating efficiency and cardiovascular strain, making them more vulnerable to heat-related illnesses like heat stroke.
氣候的變遷意味著過去安全的常規活動，如今可能帶來嚴重的健康風險。

室內環境，如開有冷氣的健身房或游泳池，皆為理想的替代方案。
Indoor environments, such as air-conditioned gyms or swimming pools, are ideal alternatives.
此外，補充水分至關重要；長者應持續補充水分，即使沒有口渴感亦然。
Additionally, hydration is critical; seniors should drink fluids consistently, even without feeling thirsty.
同時，降低運動強度並穿著輕便透氣的衣物也很重要。
It is also important to lower workout intensity and wear lightweight, breathable clothing.
若出現這些症狀，必須立即停止運動並尋求涼爽的環境。
If these symptoms occur, it is essential to stop exercising immediately and seek a cool environment.
