“Decreases” is not good enough for any job where you have to be around and interact with other people (e.g. retail, food service, healthcare, education, any kind of office work, etc…).
I sweat extremely easy and a lot. I just today completed an Olympic length triathlon, so I’d say I’m in shape. It could be cool spring day outside, and I will sweat through a shirt if I were to ride for 20 min even at a leisurely pace on flat ground. Throw some hills in there and the shirt will be mostly wet with sweat.
Yeah, criticizing and judging me is not a great way to get me on your side.
And I’d also like to know, at what fitness level, a person can bike 7 miles to work in 105° weather with 80% humidity without getting sweaty and winded.
I have a life to live, which does not include spending huge massive time at a gym meeting your standards.
Hopefully this weather is not a year-long affair for you, because that sounds painful to live through. Dare I even say that humans were not meant to live in such a climate year-round
If you arrive at work winded and sweaty from riding a bike, it means that your fitness level is low, and that you need to get in shape.
I doubt there’s any level of fitness that will keep you from being sweaty at 108°F with 80% humidity.
Global warming is worse than I knew now that that’s average daily conditions in most cities with a subway.
Who said anything about average?
Hey are you that guy in the middle of those bell curve memes?
Or, y’know, it’s hot outside.
Super anecdotally, I’ve been biking to work through the desert for years. 100F and up. You eventually get used to it. Bring a shit ton of water.
OK, yes drink lots of water, but… that does nothing for not wanting to arrive at work (or anywhere else) sweaty.
Even that decreases; I don’t break a sweat anymore. But it helps that I have work shirts and can bike slow.

It’s good enough if it decreases to the point where you no longer break a sweat!

Mine, I guess? Winded after only 7 miles is pretty bad.
