When you said they must not be active people, what were you trying to say? I take offense to that because I am very active outside in the spring/summer/fall and even on warm days in the winter.
Do you actually enjoy being active (as in heavy physical exertion) in the heat of the middle of the summer or do you tolerate the heat but wish it was cooler.

I wait until the heat of the day and go outside and run 5-10 miles. I love being in the heat and sweating. Heat index was over a 100 degrees while I was running today in the bright sun. Absolutely loved it.
Anyone who knows me knows that I will NEVER want it to be cooler. I'm a heat lover!

Low to mid 60s dewpoints I can see some people enjoying outdoor activity for short time before needing a pool or a break but upper 60s into 70s its not only risky but I can't see being active outside enjoyable for any human body.
Cousin of mine is a heat lover and he practically had a heat stroke last year with high DPs and temps.
I pulled some weeds and walked my dog today but if it wasn't for the wind I wouldn't of even done that. Lol!

I think it's more of how each person grew up. As a kid, my parents never let us stay inside unless it was cold out. So I ran around with my friends all over our ranch from sun up to sun down everyday in the summer and on lots of weekends. It didn't matter if it was 110 out. I also played football and baseball starting at 4 years old all the way thru high school and played on church baseball leagues after that and still do now. So I guess I'm just used to being outside in the heat as I have done it my whole life and would prefer it anyday over sitting inside or a cold day. I guess if you grew up in a cold climate or as a couch potato chip kind of person, then I could definitely see why the hear would get to that person.

I definitely bike ride in those dew points (including today — 8.5 miles each way back and forth). Trick is to do it in lower sun, and of course drink water. Bike riding as long as it's not too hard or uphill, has the benefit of providing a breeze. Played a volleyball game in those dew points. But still, I would enjoy it more it weren't as humid, and wouldn't think it's ideal.
