Winter is a time when we feel like relaxing in front of a fire or basking in the sunshine rather than exercising. But such a break can be dangerous for our health, so winter workouts need to be well planned for women, especially women executives, who are on a tight schedule; they must plan their activities in such a way that their workout activities do not get hampered.

1. Time It is true that due to cold weather, early morning workout becomes impossible and during the day, you are busy at the office. What can be done in such a case? Change your workout time during the winter instead of early morning walks or evening jogs, women can make use of their lunch hour! Go for a brisk walk just after lunch or climb up the staircase at least twice during lunch break. You can also use your tea breaks for small exercises. This could bring a change in the kind of exercise routines you follow, which is good for your body.

2. Getting warm If you are exercising in the winter months, dont start straight away. Warm up first and then proceed with the exercises. Cold weather conditions usually cause muscles to tighten and therefore serious injury can be incurred if you start a workout suddenly. Thus, it is always recommended to do some warm-up exercises first and then carry out your habitual exercise routine.

3. Insulate Dont try to work out without warm clothing just because you feel that your body will get heated up when you start exercising. Women need to start working out with warm clothes and as soon as they start to feel warm, they can slowly remove their warm clothes one by one. This will help them control their body temperature and make them less susceptible to getting sick.

4. Create a home gym This is always recommended for women who are busy with their professional commitments. A home gym gives women the freedom to exercise during any free time they might have this is especially beneficial in the winter months when it becomes very difficult to do an outdoor workout. You can include the apparatus and equipment of your choice in a home gym and work out as per your planned routine.

5. Winter sport This can be one of the most satisfying ways to work out. You can spend at least two days of the week taking up any winter sport you love. Weekends can be a great time to snowboard, ski and even ice skate. You can invite your friends and colleagues to participate, hence turning it into recreation in addition to just exercise.

Women executives need to make an extra effort to get their workouts in during the winter, as they need to plan out their workout time. Early morning and late evening workouts are not possible due to the chilly weather outside; hence women can replace their routine gym activities with their home gym and/or partake in outdoor activities. They need not exercise continuously for long durations; small spurts of exercise are also useful in the long run.
