As winter beings to fade into spring, temperatures can fluctuate wildly from cold to cool. But don’t let the cool weather slow you down. The American Heart Association offers these tips for working out in cooler weather. There’s no reason you need to take a break from physical activity when the temperature drops. In fact, exercising in cooler weather has some distinct advantages over working out in warmer weather. Tips to Keep in Mind No heat and humidity to deal with. The chill of early spring might even make you feel awake and invigorated. You may be able to work out longer in cooler weather—which means you can burn even more calories.
It’s a great way to take in the sunlight (in small doses). Not only can light improve many people’s moods, it also helps you get some vitamin D. Exercise boosts your immunity! Just a few minutes a day can help prevent simple bacterial and viral infections, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
