Winterizing

by Coach Dyer
The summer is officially over.
I hate the winter.
I hate the cold.
I hate that the sun doesn’t rise until almost 8a & it gets dark at 5p.
So not surprisingly, the winter months are always my worst training months.
Here are some things I’m starting now to get ready for winter:
1. Take a planned 10-minute walk outside between 11:30 and 1:30 everyday. Sunlight is important for general health and I want to get in the habit before the sun disappears.
2. Get to the gym 10 minutes earlier than usual. When it’s cold you need extra time to warm up (especially if you’re an old-timer like me). Getting used to doing a pre-warm-up warm-up will make it easier to do it once it’s cold out & I really need it.
3. Extra-hot coffee.
4. Vitamin C/Emergen-C every day. Cold weather means you’re going to be around more sneezes, snot, coughing and will have less fresh air. I want to make sure my system has the tools to fight off illnesses.
5. Put a stocking cap and sweatshirt in my car. It never fails that a blistering cold front pops up out of nowhere and I’m stuck with just a t-shirt and shorts on a gym day. Not the end of the world, but it sucks and is totally avoidable.
Got some good winter training tips? Post in the comments below.
