In cold weather, muscles are more susceptible to injuries.

  • Wear appropriate warm clothing.
  • Multiple layers of clothing trap more body heat than one bulky layer.
  • Devote more time to warming up and stretching before exercising and make sure you undertake a thorough cool-down.
  • Keep up your fluid intake, since cold weather prompts fluid loss.
  • Don’t forget sun protection – it is possible to be sunburnt even in cold weather, especially at high altitudes or on clear days.
