Cold Weather Exercise Tips
It’s getting chilly out there! When I was in high school, I always marked the beginning of fall when–with my track and field team–we would run outside and we’d need to put on a few extra base layers… Those of you who are outdoors exercisers (not me, anymore!!), here are some great tips from Debbie Berenson, a Certified Personal Trainer and the owner of One2One BodyScapes in Easton, MA.
“In the summer, when the humidity levels are high, hotter temperatures can inhibit your performance. Crisp, cold air provides a great atmosphere for a more effective and longer workout! For those who suffer from allergies, asthma or breathing disorders, colder air helps to open up your lungs and let the oxygen flow more easily and thoroughly through your bloodstream. This increased flow of oxygen, enables you to go the extra mile and feel great while pushing yourself! When you have a strenuous workout, the cold air will naturally keeps your cooler for longer and the increased oxygen in your bloodstream will allow your muscles to work harder. The inhale and exhale during exercise will ultimately be easier in crisp temperatures.
