3 Reasons To Workout When it's Cold so You Can Show it off When it's Hot!

I could make up a list of 101 reasons NOT to get up and go running in the morning. But 100 are excuses. And 1 is fear. 
We tend to think that we have tomorrow, even though we aren't satisfied with yesterday's outcome. Procrastination feeds upon itself, like an addiction and like every addict knows, it's also a liar. 
Stop telling yourself that you'll start tomorrow or next week, or when it's warmer. 
HERE ARE REASONS TO WORkOUT WHILE IT'S COLD SO YOU CAN SHOW IT OFF WHEN IT'S HOT.

Exercising outdoors when it's below 64 degrees Fahrenheit actually helps you burn more calories. How? Your body is constantly working to keep your core at 98.6. The colder it is, the more your body has to work. At around 55 degrees for 30 minutes in shorts and a T-shirt, your body will enter non shivering thermogenesis; meaning, an increase in heat production not related to exercise. Meaning... you're burning more calories just standing there. Great! Now get moving! 


​
1+1=2 and if you're cold now, then you'll probably be shivering soon. You'll receive a boost in your Metabolic Rate, meaning you're losing more at a faster rate. But, keep in mind, it's short lived. Which is perfect actually, because, hey, it's freaking cold out there! Exercising in the cold is most effective when done in short bouts rather than all morning marathons.

I loved the way Google defines brown fat, 
  1. a dark-colored adipose tissue with many blood vessels, involved in the rapid production of heat in hibernating animals and human babies.
George L. King MD explains,"Cold temperatures send a signal to your brain, which then acts to stimulate brown fat activity in two ways: by acting on your vascular system directly to increase blood flow to your brown fat stores and by sending nerve impulses to brown fat cells that stimulate am additional boost in cellular activity."
He explains the subject of burning more fat HERE if you'd like to read it.  


Sometimes though, we already know it's good for us, but, for one of the 101 reasons above, we opt out of the opportunity.
​ So if you are facing that very problem in your life, of giving up or giving in when you should be getting out, this video may very well help you too.

Winter is the worst time for me to exercise outside, but before I joined our gym I did it outside in the cold, rain, wind, and even when it was warm in the winter. Our bodies adjust and we have to get our mind set to adjust to working out no matter what the weather.
Here’s to warm workouts this winter at my gym! Lol
