Abstract: Thirty-three college students enrolled in a 16-week outdoor baseball class participated in the study. Under high temperatures and moderate-to-high humidity levels, greater moderate-to-vigorous physical activity was associated with decreased feelings of revitalization (e.g., feeling energetic, refreshed, or revived). Outdoor physical education teachers should adapt exercise intensity based on environmental conditions.
