When the weather turns crispy, it's a challenge to exercise comfortably and safely. Here are some tips on how to manage your workout in cold temperatures and wet weather.
Muscle generates a lot of heat and contributes to a high rate of metabolism at rest.
Body size can also affect your cold tolerance. This means that, relative to their size, they have a greater percentage of body in contact with the environment and will absorb cold or heat more quickly. No clear differences between men and women have been identified for cold tolerance. Hypothermia occurs when your body temperature drops too low, which can lead to dangerous consequences. You will trap and warm the air in between each layer for an insulating effect.
