Sweat is just as problematic as urine and in hot weather I change frequently whether or not I have wet the diaper. Sweat can cause rashes too. As a personal preference I always wear a full tab diaper. In hot weather it is all about air flow so I air out as much as possible. I know this is going to sound daft but I do wear a skort when out for a cycle as helps funnel air in the diaper area. The shorts part acts as a compression to keep the diaper snug to avoid chafing and keeps my diaper hidden too.
Diapers should never be worn for a full day regular changes should take place as the consequences for not doing so are nasty. I also keep my pubic hair extreamly short for two purposes keeps urine/sweat in the diaper, reduces yeast issues and helps with the cleaning and change process.
The below primer post has great advice in this regard.

Same here. When I run, I wear a pullup. I find that when running, my bladder calms down....maybe because my brain is focused on other muscles rather than messing with me bladder.
I always double void right before running just to minimize the chance of an accident on the treadmill at the gym and I haven't had problems this way yet.
I do like to hike and stuff a bit in the summer too though and I need my regular diaper for that. It can be in the 90s and humid here in the summer to so the diaper can be very hot. Just part of it though I guess.
After doing anything that gets me real sweaty though, like mowing the lawn in the 90 degree heat, I'll change my diaper even if it's not needed. Gives the skin a chance to dry out and get some air.

My issue is that I ride my bike about a mile or two to class then have classes for 6-8 hours before biking back if I'm just exercising normally I agree with using a pull up probably being ideal it will probably be what I do when my soccer refereeing starts back up in the winter, but with my classes in case I have a large accident which are rare but I know happen to me occasionally, I think it is safer for me to be wearing a tape-on diaper rather than a pull up

Then I'd just wear a pullup on the bike and stop in the restroom before class and put a proper diaper on.
