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.

I still like to run outside in the winter… in NYC, call me crazy!
nothing like some hot yoga when it’s freezing outside!
My favorite winter workout? Treadmill inside my gym! It is too cold and I am too klutzy to run outdoors in winter. Slipping on ice and snow is not fun. LOVE the jacket! So cute!
My fave winter workout is HIIT! I can get sweaty fast and warm up! I am also a subscriber on Youtube 🙂
Zumba! I don’t get to go as much as I’d like with my schedule, so the dreadmill is always my go to in a pinch. Also loving Turbo Fire!

My favorite winter workout is yoga, especially if it’s heated! I’m always cold in the freezing, super snowy winter here in Vermont and yoga is the perfect way to warm up and get my body moving!

Hi,
My fave workout is going cross-country skiing with my husband and father. It gets really cold in montreal, Canada o I have to but little warmers in my gloves and boots but its so fun and satisfying! I love your blog and as a women who is trying to get pregnant and plans to stay fit during her pregnancy, your advice hits close to home:) Thanks so much!!
Running in the mornings and spin are my favorite winter workouts!
There’s nothing better than going for a long run with my labrador retriever pup when it is -30 outside. My body is still getting accustomed to the cold winters but it feels so great to breathe in ice cold air while running my usual route.

Favorite winter workout: It would be running, if it were not for this &*(&#$ IT Band issue. So instead, it’s lifting. And, if this counts, walking my dogs.
🙂
My favorite winter workout is running. It is almost never to cold for me to run, I feel invigorated and alive running in cold weather (and we live in Colorado) 🙂
My favorite winter (and non-winter) workout is Zumba! Nothing gets you warmed up like some crazy booty shaking!
My favorite winter workout is hot yoga or Zumba!

I love a good run even if it is cold out.
Love indoor cardio videos:)
My favorite winter workout is taking a class at the gym! Beats boredom but I do miss working out outdoors.

My favorite winter workout is Body Combat. I love getting sweaty and punching/kicking some air when it’s cold outside!
My fav. winter workouts are strength classes at the gym!
My favorite winter workout would have to be circuit workouts. I find that my workout motivation likes to take a vacation during the colder months, because all I want to do is stay nice and cozy inside, so circuit workouts are a necessity to keep things interesting!
I’m a subscriber. My favorite winter workout is HIIT with lots of abs.
My favorite winter workout is incline work on the treadmill – backwards, forwards, to the side, you name it! By 9 minutes, I’m sweaty! And by the end of cardio, I feel like I’ve really accomplished something – a great, motivating way to start my day!
p.s just subscribed to the channel ….also I love hot yoga! Whats your take on hot yoga in the first trimester??
Running outside in the winter feels so refreshing!
Spin, boot camp, and bodypump are my favorite indoor winter workouts 🙂
i love running in the winter! my nose gets a little cold, but it’s so refreshing and it seems a lot easier when you’re not sweating so much. 🙂
