Turning the corner into fall and winter, it can be a lot harder to want to get outside when it\u2019s cold or pouring down rain. Does that mean you have to skip you workout? Definitely not! Here are some of the best ways to move your body indoors when you just don\u2019t feel like bundling up and heading out the door.Connect with your down dogYoga is a practice accessible to all different levels that can be done in your living room. There are a lot of great free apps you can use like Yoga Studio and DownDog that allow you to quickly punch in your expertise level, goals and workout time and start moving within minutes.HIIT it!You can get a great workout by cycling through bodyweight exercises in small circuits with minimal breaks. Try doing 20 bodyweight squats, 10 pushups, 10 lunges on each leg, a 30-second plank and 10 burpees. Set a timer and see how many rounds you can get in in 10 minutes. You\u2019ll break a sweat in no time.Do some choresYou can burn up to 119 calories for a half-hour of vacuuming and scrubbing your tub can earn you an extra 90 calories in 15 minutes. Even cleaning out your closet could burn about 85 calories so there\u2019s no better time than fall to pull out those heavy sweaters, get stuff in order and stay fit at the same time.DanceIf you aren\u2019t into something structured, try putting on some music and just having a dance party. Harvard Health estimates a 30-minute low impact dance session can burn 112 calories for a 155lb person and up to 205 for more intense dancing. Not only will you get moving but I can guarantee you\u2019ll be in a better mood afterwards too!Take WalksBundle up and take a walk. Dress in layers and get outside anyways! Once you start moving you won\u2019t be that cold. The season often brings a few sunny, crisp days with beautiful sights to enjoy. If you like hiking, winter trails are typically less busy. When exercising in the cold, you burn more calories because the body works harder to regulate body temperate. The heart gets stronger by working harder to distribute blood throughout the body.Go for a fun winter activityCross-country skiing is a very effective workout that works both the upper and lower body. Snowshoeing is also a full-body workout that gets the heart pumping and strengthens the legs. Sledding, snow tubing, downhill skiing, and ice-skating are some other fun activity options to plan for this winter. These activities are great outings for your family or group of friends.Got any other creative ways to get your workout in without leaving the house? Shoot us a message at info@personanutrition.com!
