Winter Exercise Essentials for Men
Winter is just around the corner. We know that certain times during winter, it gets too cold to even go outside, much less exercise. But with carefully picked winter running clothes and gear you can have as much fun exercising outdoors as you enjoyed during the summer without even compromising your comfort, safety and style.
In the days ahead when the temperature drops, you will have to change your exercise routine to fit the weather. No – I am not saying you need to move indoors (though it’s not that bad of an idea). But you will need to have quality clothes in your wardrobe that will make your exercise regime in winter fun and enjoyable. Here are some of the clothes to layer up in the winter and keep you warm and dry.
Winter running pants
Pants are obviously one of the most essential things you will need throughout the year. However, during winter you will need pants of special material that help you walk and run outside when it’s really cold and that are also acceptable in the fitness fashion world. You can buy great running pants at baaabfitness.com. These are usually light weight and breathable. Some of them have little pockets which you can use to keep keys, etc.
Silkweight Shirt
Silkweight shirts are light and comfortable and feel almost as if you aren’t wearing anything. But then they are really good at keeping you warm and dry. You can wear them alone on warm days, but since they are breathable, you can wear it under heavier layers, especially when it’s cold outside.
Long sleeves shirt with half zip top
Long sleeve shirts are perfect to wear over a breathable top when it’s cold out or it’s raining or snowing outside. Half zip top makes it easy to control your body temperature by zipping it up or down and the outer nylon material keeps the water and wind from entering.
Gloves
It isn’t easy to find a good pair of gloves for outdoor exercise. Stretchable gloves are great at keeping your hands warm and dry during cold or wet weather. Find gloves made of fleece, since that will keep your hands nicelywarm.
Jacket
If you live in colder climates, a jacket is a must for any outdoor activities. In fact jackets are good for both men and women. It provides protection from the elements without adding bulk. Additionallythey are also effective in blocking the wind. Jackets are a good choice for long runs or walks.
