MoonKid is on a distinguished road
My gym gets really hot in the summer. We have no a/c (just cieling fans) and a whole wall of windows that face south. There is actually a threshold (around 27C or 80F) where if the outside temperature is below it, the gym is only mildly hot, and if it's warmer than that the gym is unbearable (and this is from someone who was only coaching, I can't imagine what it would have been like if I was training).

Aussie_coach will become famous soon enough
Well of course it's quite hot around here at the moment because it is the middle of summer. Most of our girls wear a crop top and bike pants to training in the summer (and it is summer 12 months a year here). But if you are swaeting a lot you might feel more comfortable wearing something that covers your stomach and back because once you sweat you will get all sorts of things sticking to your skin.

On really hot days I have always taken two changes of clothes. Train for a couple of hours in one leo and then quickly get changed for the next few hours. Of course it will depend on how long you train. If you are only training for 2-3 hours this would be unnessesary. But if you are training longer then it really does help.
