Exercise during cold weather....

[soniacan 0]

Hi everyone

So i need to get my act together and start planning my new life exercise routine. But I HATE the cold weather! I'm such a wimp.

What have others found?

Do you buy the thermal clothing and get your self out there?

Do you get the gym membership?

Do you use the walk away the pounds dvd?

Any advise would be wonderful!

For me, gym membership. i found a really nice all women's gym that i love. Look around and see if you can find one that fits you. Some gyms you walk into and feel like you have to be a size 2 to workout there, while others are much more accepting. Goodluck!

If you have a local mall, you could walk the length of the mall. Alot of people do that in the morning before the stores open or after work. Especially when it rains and snows. I was in Ohio over the summer and people were even doing it during really HOT days.

I have a dog that requires me to be out all winter walking. I just dress in thermals- besides walking warms you up and you burn more calories shivering! I do not walk when it is way below zero or really bad wind chill or icy sidewalks. I do not want to be laid up when I wrench my bad knees. But, by the time we get out ( around 6pm) the wind usually has died down and it is clear and cold but beautiful. Also bought a recumbent bike for the days I do not walk ( and those i do also). I have not lost enough to where i feel comfy at a gym or better yet , a pool.

Well I usually jsut get out there in it anyway unless its pouring rain but I live in Melbourne and the coldest it might ever get is 0 degrees celcius in the middle of the night in the very middle of winter. I have a treadmill which is a blessing, a really worthwhile purchase. Otherwise, a gym membership would be a good idea.

I dont like the cold weather either but I get out in it anyway. I started walking at first but now I ride my bike every morning for 40 minutes rain or shine. I am addicted. Just bundle up and get out there, soon you will get used to it.
