Why do body weight circuits in the winter ?
There are several reasons to train in the winter and here are just a few of them :
To Defend Against Colds and Flu
So according to researchers keeping active can cut the risk of catching flu by 20–30 %. So hit the streets for 45 mins of running daily and you could rid yourself of those blocked up noses and feeling like you just wanna stay in bed.
Layers of clothing are crucial, as you don't want to be seizing up after the first 10 minutes. The extra clothing keeps your muscles warm but be careful not to over heat so wearing something with vents would help keep this in check.
Help Shed That Excess Blubber
Yes that's right, calorie burn in the winter is higher because the body has to expend more energy to stay warm. After warming up try doing a rope jumping routine, skip as fast as you can for a minute, rest for 30 secs and repeat it for 10 – 20 mins or until you have fallen. This will then activate your brown fat which in turn helps burn more lard calories from your lard stores. Just stimulating 85 grams of your brown fat it can help burn 400 – 500 extra calories, so get outside.
