Will I burn more calories by exercising outside in the heat?

Although you would burn a few more calories, it mostly from sweating more. The downside is that you'd be losing more salt from your body and get dehydrated quicker. It is also not as healthy for you.

The best thing is to exercise in a place where the temperature is good for you and try to find an exercise you enjoy. Usually when people try to do things to burn more calories like exercise in the heat, they are plenty of more healthy options to try first. My advice is stay in the air conditioning and feel good.

You will burn more calories because you will want to keep exercising and not want to stop because you feel awful from the heat.
