As winter sets in, the cold weather can make it tempting to stay indoors and avoid physical activity. However, maintaining physical fitness during the winter months is essential for both physical and mental well-being. The lack of sunlight and colder weather can contribute to Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a form of depression that affects many people during winter. Exercise is a natural mood booster, as it triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s ‘feel-good’ hormones.
Cold weather can put additional strain on the heart, particularly for those with existing cardiovascular conditions. However, regular physical exercise can help strengthen the heart, improving circulation and cardiovascular health. By committing to physical fitness during winter, individuals can bolster their immune system, fight seasonal weight gain, enhance their mental health, and improve their overall physical well-being.
