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 favorite winter workout is running outside in the snow 🙂
…and I’m suscribed to the youtube channel!
I’m subscribed to your Youtube channel!! I love your zumba workouts!
I like running outside in the cold … partly ’cause I really like the cold weather gear. 🙂
My favorrrrrrrite winter workout is heated yoga – flowing in the heat is just so my style. I can’t get enough, there is nothing better then walking into the heated studio after freezing my frosty booty off getting to class.
Love it!
Oh and YOU betcha that I subscribe to the youtube channel, my booty hurts for days after a go or two of the booty burner. It is my go-to burner 😉
i love the c9 champion target long sleeve tops that have the thumb holes. they look very similar to the lululemon swiftly long sleeve shirts. they are perfect for running outside!
Honestly I’ve only just begun making my workouts part of my lifestyle instead of being sporadic, so I don’t really have a favorite winter workout–but I’m enjoying all of them! I love Zumba and I’m doing the Couch to 5K program. I dig nighttime rejuvenating yoga in my cozy PJs, too! Also I live in Massachusetts, and I pretty much rock a hoodie year round!
Just subscribed to your youtube channel too. 🙂
Favorite winter workout is kickboxing!
My fav winter (or any time) workout is spin class!
I love spinning! I’ve also
Started to incorporate YouTube work out videos too! I love yours, blogilates
And tone it up!
Subscribed on YouTube, too!

My favorite winter workout is either a good weight session at the gym or an awesome trail run outside. 😀

Weight lifting and Tabata!! I’m a wimp when it comes to running in the cold!
My fave winter workout is definitely yoga. There’s something about the cold weather that makes my body all tight/stiff. A good yoga session feels like it warms me up from the inside. It’s like bourbon, but it’s better for you. 😉
Skiing!
Subscribed to your Youtube channel! YAY
Hi Gina!
My favorite winter workout is yoga! It’s always a stressful time of year (and sad in January when all the fun of the holidays are over) so I love to stay centered while building strength and long muscles. 🙂

My favorite winter workouts are the same as my favorite summer ones: Les Mills Body Pump, Body Combat, and Body Jam!
My fav winter workout is running in the (WI) snow. In the morning it’s quiet, dark and I love the crunch of snow beneath my feel. Thanks!
My favorite winter workout is still a run on a sunny (not too cold) day.
i love the winter months bc i am motivated to focus on strength training since running in the dark, cold mornings is not my favorite activity. love the hoodie!!
I love running in the winter! (I live in FL, so we don’t really have a “winter” :))
In Florida the winter weather so so beautiful that I keep it simple: long walks outside.
Hi Gina,
Thanks for the give away! My favorite winter workout is with Jillian Michaels, “Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism”. It’s really awesome and is the only workout indoors that I found, so far, that leaves me with the endorphins and feeling like I went on a good run, minus the cold and slippery washington weather. I like that it builds both your cardiovascular and strength endurance.
I live in Ohio so I love staying home and doing TurboFire or Insanity!
I love my Nike Pro Compression fleece lined leggings! They are super comfy and keep my legs so warm!
My favorite winter work out is definitely some calming yoga!

Fave winter workout– BODY PUMP! I go in cool and come out HOT! That hoodie looks amazing!! 🙂
I love [to hate] running in the winter here in Massachusetts. Even if I only manage a couple of miles it makes me feel like a total badass.
Hmmm, does mattress mambo count? I’m a wuss and haaaaate to workout in the cold weather, so indoor activities are my jam!
i subscribed to you 🙂
My favorite winter workout is yoga. I know I don’t do enough of it in the summer when the weather is so nice outside.
And… my favourite winter workout…. hmmm. I live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, so it gets cold. We have the world’s largest outdoor skating rink (it’s a canal that’s miles and miles long!), which is always fun to skate once a year at least! But to be honest, I prefer warm weather, so during the dead of winter I love hot yoga!
… And I just subscribed to your youtube channel. I only just figured out this whole subscribing to youtube channel things, and it is a great new way to procrastinate on the internet!
My favorite winter workout is hands down hot yoga. nothing like 110 degree sweaty heat when it’s actually 20 degrees outside 😉
My favorite winter workout is Body Pump
I’m a subscriber to your YouTube. I LOVE my outside boot camp class.
My winter workout is running on the treadmill or elliptical and doing some interval DVDs.
I love running in the cold, because I hate getting hot!
I like doing Yoga in the winter!
My favorite winter workouts are heated hip hop yoga (room is about 85degrees) and Zumba Toning!!! (I live in Boston… too cold to run outside)
My fave winter workout is the stepper. You can watch your favorite tv shows and burn off all the extra cookies!
Bikram yoga!! Nothing better than de-thawing in the heated room. It’s my favorite winter (and anytime) workout 🙂
I love sprints because I really sweat and sweating makes me feel like I really pushed myself!
