124 - I do this to keep fit! Help inspirer others! Winter Fitness Challenge

Ойын-сауық

Winter time things slow down and we get a little lazy. In this video I put out a Winter Fitness Challenge. What are things that people do to stay active, stay fit during the winter months to help us stay healthy? There's a lot of ways to keep active. Whether you go for walks, cut firewood, ski, go to the gym, indoor renovation project, restore old cars etc. share in the comments to inspire others to keep active during the winter.

Spending time outdoors doing projects with various machines and tools - anything from cutting trees, firewood, clearing brush, milling wood, plowing snow, reviewing, repairing & fabricating equipment. Doing landscaping and maintenance on my forested property using my Kubota tractor.
And its not all work!! Gotta take time to play - after turning my pond into a skating rink, and a whole bunch more of outdoor activities.

    Hey thanks for the video, and great challenge. I do a lot of walking over the winter months and there are nothing but hills around us so it’s usually a good trek. Cheers, and thanks for sharing!

    Thanks Mike. Absolutely, walking up down hill is great. I walk my dog a couple of times each day. It's such an easy way to get some exercise and it's very enjoyable. Take care and enjoy your walks!

    We usually go skating on some nearby swamps but now with all the snow it is just a pain to get them cleaned off, so now we just go to the local arena where they have free skating every week. I cut a lot of wood to keep in shape, but I'm more of a summer person and do a lot of biking. You have a nice pond for skating. Take care

    I hear you on that John, it really has been difficult to maintain any type of outdoor skating surface with the erratic weather we get these days. Free public skating at an arena is great and the ice is so much smoother. Cutting wood is an excellent means of physical fitness. As the years pass I have considerably cut back on logging to dedicate time to other activities but I still do a fair bit at times. Biking sure is a good cardio exercise. Thanks and take care as well!

    You're great on those skates. You don't want to see me on skates haha, I'm like Bambi on ice. Three days a week in the gym for the last 30 years and firewood keep me in shape. Kenny

    I used to play a lot of hockey to stay in shape. I was/am a goalie. There was always a shortage of goalies, so I could play as much as I wanted. Some nights I would play 3-4 games at a local rink. Long story why I stopped playing, but I hope to get back to it soon.

    Goalies are in high demand and get to play for free mostly where I am. I know from playing in net a few times myself that it's very warm with all of the equipment and it takes a lot of energy to move around. It's definitely a great workout and you do it multiple times is fantastic!

    How's she goin'? That's a nice pond Paul. You are a good looking skater and puck handler. For me, I kind of do the same sort of routine as you except I don't skate on the lake and I don't stick handle the puck. I kind of just sit around and look at the lake and remember when I could do all that stuff!! LOL Great that you can do this Paul. Good for you buddy!! Take 'er easy!!

    Good morning Sir! Thank you for the very kind words. Ouch, I know what that flying piece of wood feels like. I am surprised that you don't know how to skate, I am sure that you would be good at it. You are getting a lot of good exercise doing firewood. You have some upcoming tractor therapy once the snow storm passes. Have a fantastic weekend Sir!

    You got some mad skills, Paul, I can see why you needed to get the cat tails out of that pond. Is that normal rainfall or did you fill it a little bit before winter very nice smooth pond. I live in some very hilly areas so I try to walk 2 miles a day.

    Thanks Jeff! It is normal rainfall, no water added. Usually the ice level is much higher. We didn't have as much rain in the fall. Walking is an awesome way to keep fit and being in a hilly area it makes it even more of a workout! Have a fantastic day!
