Snow workouts

I have posted 'winter workout' info on my blog earlier this winter, but this past Wednesday reminded me again of how much fun a winter workout can be.

My fellow co-worker and I, went out Wednesday morning to do a snow workout. What does a snow workout consist of? Anything! That's the beauty of it! Whatever you want, it can have! We went onto the soccer pitch behind our work, and did some exercises. The snow was anywhere from mid-shin to almost knee deep. We started with some quick walking through the snow for a warm up, then did things like: 2 footed hops, sprints, pushups, agility runs, and lateral 2 footed hops. Yes it kicks your butt, but it's fun too. We had a lot of laughs. Not to mention it just reminds you of being a kid again and getting out into the snow! Falling in the snow while doing our agility runs, tumbling down while trying to run backwards, getting snow in our face because we're laughing while doing pushups... It was tough, but fun! That's what workouts are all about - CHALLENGE YOURSELF, BUT ENJOY WHAT YOU'RE DOING!
