6 Reasons to Exercise in Winter

Boost your immune system: A healthy diet and regular exercise are major contributors in making your body healthy and strong to give it the best chance at fighting off bugs and viruses during the colder months

Burn excess calories: During winter, we naturally gravitate toward calorie-dense, delicious comfort foods. Maintaining a regular exercise regimen prevents those extra calories increasing our waist size and instead uses them to energise us and fuel our workouts

Beat the winter blues: The winter blues are a real thing but luckily for us, exercise is a proven mood-booster! Moving your body and getting your heart-rate up releases feel-good endorphins and helps you to feel happier and more energised throughout those cold winter days.

Save on electricity: Moving your body raises your heart-rate, pumps blood into the muscles and brings heat into the body! Save your money, turn the heater/air-con off and move your body!

Maintain routine: Making excuses is easy in winter but letting go of your regular training regimen in the colder months makes it so much harder to re-establish your routine when the weather warms up. Set some goals, make a plan, and stay on track so that you don’t have to start from square one again in Spring.

Maintain social connections: The gym isn't just a place to get in a workout, it's also a place to build relationships and social connections. Don't hibernate this winter, continue to sweat through your workouts with your community!
