3 Questions about finding Fresh — New — Winter Workout Ideas for OUTDOORS prior to cold weather?
I’m looking for 3 things:
1 — I am looking for some fresh new workout ideas…maybe playing of off the weather getting cooler and what exercises we can do outside while the weather isn’t so cold just yet.
2 — Does anyone know of any high energy and fun new trends that don’t require a great deal of equipment
3 – Finally, anyone think of any dangers people should know about when working out during the winter months or in general?
Hello Nolan Ferraro,
We walk outdoors all year long; making sure to dress warmly in layers for the cold. The asthmatics are careful by covering their faces to prevent breathing cold air. We wear a wide brim hat for sun protection and carry water.
Our parks and schools have workout stations along paths to add high energy bouts of fun.
We also wear ice cleats or similar items for slippery surfaces. Snowshoeing can also be fun; but, be careful not to overdo the first few sessions, as lifting a larger shoe with the weight of snow and ice on it can be trying on the hip flexors.
Jump rope, Punk Rope, are great to do outdoors in the cooler weather without the annoying insects biting and sweat not evaporating…yes, there are advantages to cool weather.
Temperatures and how we react to them are relative to the area we live in. Listen to the body to dress appropriately and comfortably. This is why I stress clothing the body in layers; it is much easier to peel off excess than put on what we do not have with us.
I hope this helps you.
Take care,
Natalie aka NAPS 2 B Fit.
