Fave cold weather gear + a giveaway- ENDED
Welcome to Tucson, winter.
I have to say, I was a little bit excited when I pulled out my beloved purple Scuba hoodie this morning.
It felt so weird to easily zip it, instead of awkwardly trying to zip it over a large pregnant belly like last year, even though I do kinda miss the belly. I love the soft fabric, the cozy hood and the thumbholes, of course. While it never gets cold enough to warrant working out in a sweatshirt out here, it’s definitely one of my favorite cold weather pieces.
Also on the list: my new arm sleeves that I bought for the race a few weeks ago.
It’s a perfect way to keep warm, without having to commit to a long-sleeved shirt. You get too hot, you take the sleeves off and, in my case, stuff them in your shirt to give you some crazy-looking bumps.
I also love running tights, ear warming headbands and mittens when it’s time for outdoor workouts in the cold. As much as I love all of the extras, hoodies will always be my favorite! I adore so many different styles and brands.
My friends at Under Armour kindly offered to giveaway a fleece storm hoodie to a lucky Fitnessista reader, if you’re looking for an extra way to stay cozy during your workouts, or to and from the gym.

My fave cold weather workout is going to spin class. My gym is only about a block away, I get a good sweat, and then I’m back to my hoodie and a warm cup of tea at my apt 🙂
My favorite winter workout is walking outside if it’s not too cold or a yoga or HIIT DVD.
my favorite winter workout is a yoga DVD at home. I hate leaving my house in the cold winter months!

I love taking walks outside in the winter. I normally hit up my treadmill for jogs, but the walks outside with some fresh, crisp air. Delicious!
I subscribed to your YouTube channel 🙂
I subscribed too!
I love hot yoga or a quick video workout in the living room. Anything that doesn’t require me to freeze my buns off!
I subscribed to your YouTube channel!
my favorite winter workouts are done at home! i rely on stuff like the tone it up dvd and videos, and workouts that you share! funny thing is, im getting better results at home then at the gym. I guess its all about focus and drive!
Adding spinning into my routine!
My fave winter workouts are zuzana light workouts from youtube and yoga videos from yogadownload.com.
I like to put on shorts and a hoodie and freeze my buns off on the way to the gym — makes me work harder to warm myself up! haha 🙂
i also subscribed to your youtube channel! cant wait to check more videos out!
used to be running but with cranky knees I think it will be yoga
I have to join a gym. Gets way to cold and dark to early to keep running outside!!
Running!
Just subscribed to your youtube channel 🙂
I’m in Wisconsin, and it gets pretty cold outside. But, for me, it’s perfect for running outdoors. So, I would say my favorite winter workout is a long run outside on a Saturday morning.
My favorite winter workout is anything that makes me sweat! Just going to the gym on a cold day and sweating it up on a good run makes me feel so accomplished.
I am now a you tube subscriber :0)
My physical activity slows waaaay down in the winter. My go-to is brisk long walks.
Nothing beats a run early in the morning when the snow is sparkling in the light from the street lamps.
I would have to say any type of circuit workout that incorporates strength and cardio! In the warm months I gravitate towards more cardio outside, so when Winter comes I am pretty excited to kick up my strength training a notch!
I LOVE hot yoga in the wintertime. Nothing like freezing temps outside and walking into a heated room 🙂
Crossfit is my favorite workout ant time of year!
Favorite winter workout: Bikram or a nice and hot vinyasa flow! I also love skiing and this year I’m going to give snowshoeing a shot for the first time!
I just subscribed to your youtube channel…good thing because I’m on there almost daily following along to your killer ab burners 🙂
Whatever gets me sweating!!!!
Call me crazy, but I like to bundle up and run more it seems during the colder winter months. I think it has something to do with the fact that I feel so accomplished and awesome afterwards. Afterall, running in the cold isn’t easy!
Hockey!
My favorite winter workout is at-home workout DVDs 🙂
I subscribe to your youtube channel too!!!
Already subscribed to your youtube channel! I’ve been loving TRX lately. I work out at 5:30am in Northern California. Definitely need to wear my hoodie until I finally get the blood flowing.
I love running in the winter! The cold is moderate in Portland, so there are only a few days of ice and snow 🙂 I’d much rather run in the cold than the heat.
My favorite winter workout is indoors, but I love this hoodie 🙂
I love taking hot power yoga during the winter months. 🙂
I love a good circuit workout in the winter!
Spinning!
I subscribed to your YouTube channel!
jogging at the crack of dawn. It always empowers me to go the extra mile
My favorite winter work outs are DVD work outs! Love me some Chalene Johnson!
I try to keep running outside in the winter, but here in Massachusetts that’s not always a great plan. For those days when I can’t face it, I do a workout dvd or yoga.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I just subscribed to your YouTube channel….Also, my favorite winter workout is running outside when it’s raining. Is that weird? Like right now, it’s raining here in the VLD and I am excited to put my running shoes on! I’m definitely an Oregonian…You can take the girl out of Oregon, but not Oregon out of the girl!! I would also LOVE to win the hoodie. I love wearing hoodies, and feeling cozy. I also know it’ll be put to good use since we’ll be moving to Korea soon, and the winters are mighty cold!
I love running but do not like running in the cold!! So my favorite winter work outs are treadmill runs. I also LOVE a nice hot Bikram Yoga class on a cold New England day here in Boston!!
I love to run all year long but in the winter I can’t wait to break a sweat on the slopes or snowshoeing!
